Fultons store in Harrogate to close this week
The Fultons Food store in Harrogate town centre is set to close this week.
Staff in the shop on Station Parade have told customers it will close on Thursday and some items will be relocated to the Poundland store in the town's Victoria Shopping Centre.
Fultons on Station Parade has been running a half price sale this week.
Poundland bought Barnsley-based Fultons in October. Since then, Fultons stores in Ripon and Knaresborough have closed.
When the Harrogate town centre store closes, the Leeds Road shop on the outskirts of Harrogate will be the district's only remaining Fultons.
The Stray Ferret contacted both Fultons and Poundland for further details about the move and for an update on the future of the Leeds Road store.
Poundland sent a statement saying Harrogate would be one of 37 stores in July and August to be part of the latest phase of a project to extend the company's range of chilled and frozen foods.
According to the statement, the Harrogate Poundland will start offering chilled and frozen foods in the week commencing August 16.
Jack Fulton founded Fultons in 1960. The first Poundland store opened in Burton upon Trent in 1990.
