The chain, owned by New York-listed
Walgreens Boots Alliances,
is considering closing more than 200 shops,
during the next two years.
[Employing roughly 56,000 people,
Boots is one of the largest retailers
in Britain by store numbers and
also trades from about 1100
opticians and hearing-care shops
which use its brand.
The company joins most other
major high street players in examining
measures to reorient its bricks-and-mortar
presence as consumers' shift to
digital channels accelerates.]
