Fashion chain owned by H&M launches closing down sale before it disappears from the high street as ALL stores shut.

A MAJOR fashion brand leaves British stores

According to The Sun: The well-known chain Monroe, part of the Swedish giant H&M, is preparing to close its last store in the UK. The closure of the Bristol sales point will take place on September 14, which will mean the complete disappearance of the brand from the streets of the country.

According to information, stores are already decorated with large posters announcing a sale before closure, as well as thanks to loyal customers for their support.

Changes in the store network

Monki, initially launched as a youth brand under the auspices of H&M, gained popularity thanks to its bold and eccentric designs. Currently, there are only three Weekday stores left in the UK, all located in London.

In January, the sales points in Manchester and Newcastle closed, and the rest in London, Bristol, and Sheffield have also applied for closure or transformation this year. A representative of H&M noted:

“With the recent launch of the Weekday creative space, Weekday has created a curated platform where culture, style, and street fashion merge. This space brings together our brands – Weekday, Monki, and Cheap Monday – with second-hand clothing, exclusive editions, and more, all under one roof.”

Thus, the last Monki store in Bristol will become a symbol of the end of its presence in the UK.

The state of retail in Bristol

The closure of Monki is yet another blow to retail in central Bristol. Recently, many well-known stores have closed here, including the flagship Apple store, which ceased operations after 15 years of trading.

These changes are taking place against the backdrop of a large-scale redevelopment of the Quakers Friars area, being carried out by the shopping center owner Hammerson, with plans to turn the former Apple space into a healthcare center.

In light of the closure of the Monki store, fashionistas from Bristol and other cities are likely to turn to online shopping to acquire unique items from this brand.
