A POPULAR high street shoe shop loved by mums has closed more locations with shoppers spotting huge sale signs in store.<\/p>\n
The iconic retailer, which has more than 300 stores, has now confirmed it will shut its doors for good in Norwich and Sunderland.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
At the Riverside retail park in Norwich, the Clark's closing down sale offers any additional items at 50 per cent off when a full-price item is bought.<\/p>\n
It is understood that the shop is closing\u00a0due to a rent hike as the building's lease comes to an end.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile the Sunderland branch in The Bridges has also pulled the shutters down.<\/p>\n
A Clarks spokesperson would only say: \u201cClarks confirms its store at The Bridges Shopping Centre, Sunderland, has now closed.<\/p>\n
\u201cCustomers can continue to shop from our full range of products online and at our nearby Clarks stores in Newcastle, Durham and at our outlet store in Murton.\u201d<\/p>\n Clarks has closed a string of its own stores\u00a0in the past year\u00a0including two in Kent, one in Dundee and one in Fareham.<\/p>\n It comes after Clarks announced that it'll\u00a0pull down the shutters in High Street Inverness\u00a0before the end of this month.<\/p>\n It'll also shut in\u00a0Westwood Cross Shopping Centre\u00a0in Kent in mid-November.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Several Clarks stores closed earlier this year too, with its branch in\u00a0Fareham Shopping Centre\u00a0shutting on August 5 and the\u00a0Dundee\u00a0store closing on July 25.<\/p>\n Before this, it closed the doors on two stores in\u00a0Kent\u00a0in Ashford and Gillingham at the end of 2022.<\/p>\n It is understood that the shop is closing\u00a0due to a rent hike as the building's lease comes to an end.<\/p>\n A \u00a0Company Voluntary Arrangement\u00a0(CVA) was agreed which saw the Clarks family lose overall control of the company.<\/p>\n A CVA allows firms that have run out of cash to look at ways to save the business, such as reducing\u00a0rent\u00a0rates with landlords.<\/p>\n Companies often agree to a CVA to avoid insolvency, which can lead to closures or the whole business going bust.<\/p>\n<\/picture>HOUSE DISASTER <\/span><\/p>\n
