Wigan Today contacted Pound Stretcher – which also closed its Wallgate outlet in 2020 – for a comment about the reasons for the shutdown and what was happening to its employees, but a spokesperson would only say: “We have no comments to make on this matter.”

A notice has been posted on the door of the premises confirming the closure and referring shoppers to alternative Pound Stretcher outlets in Wigan town centre and Skelmersdale.
