The last Wilko stores in the UK are set to close for the final time tomorrow.

Wilko entered administration in August leaving all 400 of its stores and 12,500 employees at risk. 

Administrators at PwC were forced to sell off Wilko’s assets after failing to secure a rescue deal for the whole business.

Some Wilko stores have been saved with fellow high-street retailers agreeing deals with administrators.

B&M bought 51 Wilko stores at the beginning of September in a deal thought to be worth around £13 million. 

While The Range agreed to a deal to buy Wilko’s brand for around £5 million.

Poundland owner Pepco also agreed on a deal to buy 71 Wilko stores and has already begun re-opening sites across the UK under the Poundland brand.

There are 10 former Wilko sites opening as Poundland stores today (October 7), while another 10 re-opened last weekend.

More than 200 Wilko stores have already closed across the UK over the past two months following the announcement the retailer had entered administration.
