BREAKING NEWS: Major retailer in Horsham to close
The store, based in The Forum and a major retailer in the town, confirmed today that it is to shut up shop this summer.
The news follows an announcement last week that the Beales chain had entered into a ‘company voluntary arrangement’ and was seeking rent cuts from landlords for 14 of its 35 shops over a 10-month period to avoid closure.
