Flooring retailer Tapi - which has shops in Shrewsbury and Telford - has agreed to rescue the troubled retailer, but is only buying 54 stores out of more than 250, along with two warehouses, the brand and its intellectual property in a pre-pack administration deal.
None of the saved stores are in Shropshire, meaning that, according to PricewaterhouseCoopers, within the coming days the following Carpetright shops in the county will close:
– Oswestry
– Shrewsbury
– Telford (FV)
Note: Stores written with ‘FV’ initials are based inside Furniture Village stores
Just outside Shropshire, other stores set to close include:
– Cannock – Orbital
– Llanidloes – Hafren Furnishers
– Wednesbury (FV)
– Wolverhampton
– Wrexham
One store that will remain open is the Hereford branch.
