Lancaster’s Wilko will close for good on October 3rd.
It was confirmed earlier this month that the chain would disappear from the High Street, after a rescue deal collapsed.
All 400 branches of collapsed retailer Wilko will close next month, with the Penny Street branch shutting on Tuesday, October 3.
Administrators PwC confirmed the closure by publishing final lists today.
Wilko - owned by the founding Wilkinson family for decades - collapsed into administration last month.
In a statement, the GMB union said: ‘’We are incredibly sorry to have to share the devastating news that PWC have confirmed the previous offer being explored for the sale of hundreds of stores as a going concern has fallen through.
‘’There is now no prospect of saving the remaining store estate in its entirety and all Wilko stores will close by early October.
‘’Although separate bids may be made for leases of groups of sites, these deals will not secure jobs, although the option to take up new employment with the bidders for these sites is something we are now pushing for.
‘’This is not the news our members or the GMB had been hoping for or working towards.
‘’You deserved so much more than this and we will continue to work so you are treated with the respect you deserve during the remaining days and wind down and we will not stop working to ensure those responsible for this debacle are held to account in the future.’’
A number of stores have been taken over by the B&M chain, while an agreement for The Range to acquire the Wilko brand name, website and Intellectual Property has also been achieved.
