A MAJOR fashion retailer has confirmed when all of its 170 stores will close forever – and 110 locations have already shut down for good.
M&Co will be bringing the shutters down on all of its shops by the end of the month, The Sun can reveal.

It comes after the brand fell into administration last year and announced that all of its 170 stores will be closing.
Administrators at Teneo put the bust business up for sale with an auction deadline for interested buyers.
M&Co’s brand and intellectual property was sold to Yours Clothing but the stores weren’t and are set to close.
So far, 110 M&Co locations have disappeared from the high street.
The closures have been confirmed on each store’s Facebook page.
One of the shops shutting its doors is in Alnwick, it posted: “It’s with great sadness to say M&Co Alnwick will close their doors on Sat 22nd April.
“I would like to express my deepest gratitude to ALL OUR CUSTOMERS who have supported us throughout this difficult time.”
While another in Bexhill wrote: “Please keep on supporting us until we close our doors as we would love to see you and serve you till the end.”

Teneo, M&Co’s administrator, previously said that further stores will begin to vanish from the high street as store stock dries up.
But the administrator wouldn’t provide an exact date when it expects the brand to completely exit the high street.
M&Co has been running a huge 30-60% off closing down sale in stores in recent months to help shed remaining stock.
Shoppers need to act fast to take advantage of the discounts because once the items are sold they’re gone forever.
And remember you might find that your closest store doesn’t have what you want in stock.
You can find your closest M&Co store by visiting the retailer’s website and using the store locator tool.
