News: GAME to close 43 stores, axe 247 jobs
High Street retailer GAME has confirmed that it is to close 43 stores at the cost of 247 jobs in the UK.
The company will shut 12 GAME stores, six tation businesses and all 25 concessions in Debenhams stores. Sales over the Christmas period were down 18 per cent, and the firm announced last month that further consolidation would but 80 jobs in the tation business at risk.
“The majority of the identified sites are located close to another one of our stores, and we will help each customer affected by a closure to transfer to their nearest store as well as our online offerings,” said GAME in a statement to Industry.biz.
