Wilko shut a further 28 stores after the end of trading yesterday as the collapsed retailer continues with the closure of all its stores.
The high street chain, which entered administration last month, started its first phase of closures by shutting 24 shops on Tuesday.
The Wilko shop on Bridge Street in Banbury was closed yesterday (Thursday September 14).
All of Wilko’s 400 shops will close by early October, costing 1,016 jobs, according to administrators from PwC.
The future of the homeware chain has been up in the air.
But earlier on Thursday, administrators confirmed rival discount chain The Range has snapped up Wilko’s brand, website and intellectual property.
