Major fashion retailer to leave Priory Meadow
Topshop and Topman, located in Queens Square, Queens Road, Hastings, will be closing in April 2018 due to lease expiration, a spokesman for the retailer has confirmed.
The spokesman added: “We will endeavour to offer current staff other employment options within the Arcadia Group and customers can continue to shop online at topshop.com and topman.com.”

Along with Marks and Spencer, H&M, New Look, River Island and Pizza Express, Topshop had been classified as an anchor tenant – one which attracts other businesses – within the Priory Meadow Shopping Centre by commercial property agency Colliers.
News of the closure comes four months after value fashion retailer Primark announced plans to open a new store in the Priory Meadow Shopping Centre in summer 2018.
Primark will open in the premises left vacant by BHS.
