Update: Mansfield Wilko store to close today

Mansfield Wilko store on Clumber Street will close its doors for the final time today (Thursday, September 28).

The company was founded in 1930 in Leicester and went on to open more than 400 stores across the UK.

But sadly, the High Street chain announced they had appointed administrators in August after failing to secure a rescue deal for the business.

Wilko’s administrators PwC announced the closure of all stores with Mansfield being one of the 111 scheduled to close week commencing Monday, September 25.

The Sutton and Worksop retailers closed earlier this week.
