M&S to close busy town centre branch after decades on high street for good TODAY [Video]

SHOPPERS are gutted to say goodbye to a decades-old M&S store in the centre of town today.

The longstanding M&S branch is shutting down for good leaving customers devastated for their high street.

The Crawley branch has sold its last Colin the Caterpillar cake to Queensway residents today as the iconic store finally shuts up shop.

Graham Bennett, M&S regional manager, said: “After consulting with our colleagues following our proposals earlier this year, our Queensway store will close on Saturday, November 16.

“Individual conversations are continuing with our colleagues and wherever possible, we will be offering them alternative roles with M&S.

“Thank you to all our customers who have shopped at the store – we will continue to work hard serving you at our nearby Acorn Park M&S Food.”

Luckily for Crawleyshoppers the next nearest M&S store isn’t too far away …
