Sainsbury’s has said that its store in Foss Bank is set to close in January 2025.

Sainsbury’s has said that its store in Foss Bank is set to close in January 2025. A spokesperson said that last week they shared the difficult news with their workers at their York Foss Bank supermarket that it will cease trading at the expiry of their lease next year.

Last month, it was reported that the retailer was planning cutbacks elsewhere in an effort to save costs. The spokesperson said that they understand this will be an unsettling time for everyone this affects and that they are committed to doing everything they can to support them, including offering opportunities for workers to redeploy to alternative roles within Sainsbury’s.
