Ten stores across the UK are closing ahead of being converted into Sainsbury's supermarkets
"Everything must go" signs have been put up at the Homebase store in Newark . The large site is one of ten Homebase stores in the UK that are set to be converted into Sainsbury's supermarkets.
The retailer has agreed to take on the sites as part of its Next Level Sainsbury's Plan. There is currently no Sainsbury's store in Newark, with the closest locations being Balderton, Netherfield and Lincoln. Whilst residents in the area are excited to see the supermarket open a local store, many are disappointed to see Homebase go. Although an official closing date has not been confirmed, each of the stores being acquired by the supermarket is expected to close before Christmas.
The closure of the Newark store has been confirmed with the closing-down signs being placed on and around the site, which state the store is closing and "everything must go". This is a great chance for a bargain if someone is in the process or planning to do some home renovations, as Homebase sells everything from seasonal decor and lighting to gardening and DIY products. The Newark store, which is located on the Northgate Retail Park, is currently open from 9am to 8pm on weekdays, until 7pm on Saturdays and from 10am to 4pm on Sundays.
