Poundland closes two more stores: where exactly will the chain cease operations.

According to The Sun: Customers are worried about the closure of two more Poundland stores, as the company is reviewing its locations.

The store in Tenby, Wales, will close on October 18, while the store in Livingston, Scotland, will cease operations on October 12.

The store in Tenby is located in the former Royal Playhouse cinema, which closed in 2011.

In Livingston, customers are concerned that another closure will make their town even less attractive.

“The center looks quite empty at this time, everything is closing,” wrote one Facebook user.

“The center is getting worse... soon there will be no point in it existing at all,” added another disappointed shopper.

The Livingston store has already posted a sale notice saying “everything must go.”

This comes amid a restructuring plan that aims to close 57 stores.

Initially, 68 closures were announced, but 11 of them turned out to be temporarily suspended.

Additionally, the company plans to reduce its network by another 150 stores, cutting it from 800 to 650.

This major restructuring program aims to save the chain, founded in 1990 in Burton-upon-Trent.

The plan was approved by the High Court last month, saving the retailer from collapse at the last minute.

Furthermore, two warehouses will close, and operations for frozen product sales and online shopping will cease.

Despite this, the retailer hopes to reduce the number of closures as much as possible.

As part of the restructuring, Poundland has offered rent reductions for 180 stores, so the number of closures will depend on how many landlords agree to the lower rent.

A spokesperson for Poundland confirmed that rumors of the store closure in Blockwich, West Midlands, are false.

What is happening with Poundland?

The large retailer, which employs 14,700 workers, has been facing financial difficulties in recent years.

The new owner, Gordon Brothers, who purchased the chain for 1 pound in June, announced a rescue package of 90 million pounds for the business.

On September 16, the chain announced that 11 stores initially planned for closure would remain open.

Among them are stores in Inverness, Brighton, Annesley, and Whitby.

More changes at Poundland

Customers can no longer buy products on the Poundland website, and the loyalty program, Poundland Perks, has been canceled.

Customers who signed up for the Poundland Perks app have until January 15, 2026, to use their bonus vouchers.

A frozen goods center and a digital distribution center in Darton, South Yorkshire, will also close later this year.

The national distribution center in Bilston will close in early 2026.

Some branches have also begun large sales with discounts of up to 90%.

These changes come at a time when Poundland is returning to its roots, planning to increase the range of products sold for 1 pound.

As part of the reform, the retailer will start selling products at prices of 1, 2, and 3 pounds in all stores from November 1.

Changes aim to attract shoppers' attention and support the promise of offering great value.

Shortly, the number of products sold for 1 pound is expected to increase to 60%, 20% of products will be sold for 2 pounds, and another 20% for 3 pounds.
