Morrisons is set to close 10 loss-making McColl’s stores in Scotland.
The stores proposed for closure in Scotland are in Kilwinning (Main Street), Helensburgh, Bridge of Allan, Chapelhall, Fort William, Corstorphine, Dalkeith, Dunfermline, and Glenrothes.
Joseph Sutton, Morrisons’ Convenience, Online and Wholesale Director, said: “We very much regret the proposed closure of 132 loss-making stores but it is, very sadly, an important step towards the regeneration of the business.
“I am confident that McColl’s can, in the Morrisons family, once again become a growing, thriving and vibrant convenience business serving local communities across the UK.”
The retailer said all the workers affected will be offered roles elsewhere in the company.
