Marks & Spencer To Close Bow Street Mall Store In Lisburn

Marks and Spencer is to close its store in Lisburn's Bow Street Mall.

The 40 staff are expected to move to nearby stores and the firm is also opening a new outlet in Craigavon in the autumn.

Simon Layton, Head of Region for M&S in Northern Ireland said it was a difficult decision.

He said: "The decision not to renew our lease and therefore close our small food store in Bow Street Mall, Lisburn was a difficult one to make.

"I understand many of our loyal customers will be disappointed and we hope to see them in our nearby Lisburn store at Sprucefield Shopping Complex.

"We've got a brilliant team of 40 colleagues at the store who will all move to nearby stores."
