Yu & Me, a beloved hardware store in Stockport, Greater Manchester, will be closing its doors on January 5, 2025, after its lease expires. The store, known for its wide selection of hardware and DIY supplies, has served the community for over 30 years. The closure comes as the site is set to be taken over by the Co-op.
A family-run store in Greater Manchester hailed as an institution for its prominence for more than 30 years is to close at the end of the week.
Run by a man lovingly referred to in the area as Mr Yu, the DIY and hardware store has been described online as an 'Aladdin's cave' full of bits and pieces and has served the Stockport community for more than three decades. The news was met with disappointment from some of Yu & Me’s regular customers - with many describing it as the ‘end of an era’. One person wrote: “Oh no this isn't what I wanted to read, what will I do without you guys, my heart is broken, at least your dad will be able to relax, he is a wonderful man, end of a special era.”
