Lichfield’s TJ Hughes store will finally close its doors on August 31.
The closure will come after administrators failed to find a buyer for the last five shops still trading.
The company was placed into administration on June 30 and found a buyer for six of the 57 stores.
Although a number of other TJ Hughes stores have already been closed, it had been hoped that the five left opening – in Lichfield, Doncaster, Bradford, Sunderland and Wrexham – could still be saved.
However, joint administrator Tom Jack told the Liverpool Daily Post:
“A purchaser for these remaining stores was not found, and regrettably we have had to schedule these final store closures.
“We are extremely grateful to the employees and management at all the group’s stores for their loyalty and support during this very difficult time.”
