THE Neston branch of holiday operator Thomas Cook is to shut its doors as part of the firm’s big shake-up.
Nationally, the holiday firm is to close nearly 200 of their 1,069 stores, with the loss of about 2,500 jobs.
The branch closure is expected to result in the loss of four roles.
Joanna Wild, managing director of the Thomas Cook Co-operative retail network, said: “As a large retailer, we regularly review our network to make sure we have the right stores in the right places for our customers and regrettably there are occasions where we need to close certain branches.
“Following careful consideration, we have announced that the Neston High Street Co-op store is proposed to close and we are working with those colleagues who are affected.
“We’d like to thank both our colleagues and customers for the commitment and understanding during this process.
“Our high street stores are a popular way for customers to book with us and are an essential part of our multi-channel approach alongside our websites and sales centres.”
Nearby branches such as the Port Arcades in Ellesmere Port, Bridge Street in Chester and the Broughton Shopping Park near Chester are unaffected.
