Fultons Foods in Knaresborough closes today
Fultons Foods in Knaresborough closes its doors for good today.
The frozen food store, at 32 High Street Knaresborough, is the second Fultons in the district to close recently.
Last month the Ripon store closed permanently.
The Barnsley-based value retailer, which was bought by Poundland in October, has about 80 remaining stores in the north of England, including two in Harrogate.
Staff in Knaresborough have been clearing shelves this week and discounting items to empty the store before it shuts.
One member of staff at the store, who asked not to be name, said they were given two weeks notice about the closure. Some have moved to other stores but not all.
Knaresborough has seen a boom of new shops opening in the past six months so this will be a loss to the high street.
Fultons did not respond to calls from the Stray Ferret.
