The Moor in Sheffield city centre
A high street giant has announced the closing date for their Sheffield city centre shop.
As we’ve previously reported, The Entertainer, based at The Moor, is shutting down. Notices have been seen in the window of the toy shop notifying customers of its closure.
Andrew Murphy OBE, group chief executive officer at The Entertainer, said: “We are disappointed that we were unable to agree on commercially viable terms with our landlord at our Sheffield Moor store and particularly upset at the impact this has on our colleagues, who have run the store brilliantly.
“Sadly, it is a fact of retail life that shops sometimes have to close, as shopping patterns shift and cost growth outstrips sales increases. We remain committed to serving the people of Sheffield through our amazingly successful store at Meadowhall.”
The Entertainer, at The Moor, will close on Saturday, October 11 with discounts running as part of the retailer’s closing down sale.
