Overview
- The retailer confirmed the Bidston Moss foodhall café in Wirral will close, with a closing date to be announced.
- The café space will be converted to create more room for popular food ranges, according to company statements.
- This forms part of 11 café closures in smaller food shops, affecting fewer than 4% of M&S’s 316 food stores.
- M&S says no jobs will be lost at Bidston, with affected colleagues retained within the store.
- The change aligns with a wider modernisation plan that targets more mixed and dedicated food stores and around 20 openings or refurbishments by April, expected to generate about 800 jobs.
