Tapi confirms Carpetright store closure locations

The full list of 218 Carpetright stores set to close following the company’s acquisition by Tapi has been confirmed.

Tapi has acquired the company’s IP as well as two warehouses and 54 of its stores saving 308 jobs.

However, the details of the deal mean that 1,018 jobs across the head office and remaining stores will be lost as well as fitters.

Tapi claimed that saving the entire business was “unviable” after the company had been loss making for a number of years and had “significant debt”.

The company also stated that it was mindful of how the Competition and Markets Authority would view a larger deal.

The list of store closures is as follows with those marked FV stores which are inside a Furniture Village store.
