STAFF have bid a final farewell to the Droitwich Wilko store after closing its shutters for the last time.
Droitwich's store in St Andrew's Square closed yesterday (September 21).
Worcester and Droitwich Wilko branches have both closed for good this week along with all stores across the UK.
Worcester’s Wilko's final day was Tuesday (September 19).
Shoppers were seen taking advantage of Wilko’s closing-down sale as the Worcester store entered its final day of trading.
It was revealed earlier this week that Worcester and Droitwich Wilko stores are set to become a Poundland.
The discount retailer’s owner Pepco agreed on a deal to buy 71 Wilko stores following the collapse of the high street chain.
Wilko employed 12,500 staff and ran 400 shops before calling in administrators PwC last month.
Staff are all likely to be made redundant in the coming weeks, as all Wilko stores are to shut by early October.
