42 shops
Around 8 or 10 stores may Close One worried Store Big One is in Liverpool they do not know their future. The St. Pancras station one I can understand closing. [John Lewis is considering more store closures as it tries to cut costs and adapt to the boom in online shopping. In what would be another blow for the High Street, the BBC understands up to eight department stores may remain permanently closed. That would be on top of the eight stores it shut last year, which included two small travel hub shops at Heathrow and St Pancras.] [CEO Dame Sharon White has warned more John Lewis stores are to remain shut] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-56154961 https://news.sky.com/story/covid-19-...sales-12242423 Last edited by arista; 24-03-2021 at 11:15 AM. |

The highstreet is DOA I'm afraid. It was coming anyway but Covid has been a huge catalyst. Cities in general are going to be less busy, vast majority of people I've spoken to who work a 9-5 office pattern say their companies are likely adopting a "hybrid model" going forward (they will have offices that you can go to whenever you want, but remote working from home or from wherever you want will be much more common than it was before.
