Sainsbury’s will close its Local store on Barton Street in Gloucester.
The supermarket chain moved into the former India House pub building in 2013.
A spokesperson for Sainsbury’s said: “We have made the difficult to decision to close our Gloucester Barton Street Local store. Customers can continue to shop with us at nearby stores, including Gloucester Quays and Barnwood.”
“Colleagues will transfer with the store to the Samy Ltd. but also have the opportunity to apply for roles at other Sainsbury’s stores. We understand this will be an unsettling time for those affected and we’re supporting them in any way we can.”
No closure date has been given by Sainsbury’s.
Samy Ltd trade under the Budgens, Spar, Londis & Premier brand – no confirmation has been given yet to which brand the new store will revert to.
