High street fashion chain with 105 stores to shut 12 branches in weeks A HIGH STREET fashion chain with 105 stores will shut 12 branches in a matter of weeks.
The data also showed over half the stores that closed last year were shut due to the store or retailer going through insolvency proceedings.
Plenty of other retailers are closing stores across the high street as households lean more towards online shopping and amid high business rates.
These reports also follow a barrage of closures made by the bargain fashion store last year.
The Centre for Retail Research (CRR) has also warned that around 17,350 retail sites are expected to shut down this year.
