Poundland has said it is shutting another tranche of UK stores by February as part of its closure programme.

The discount retailer has already trimmed the size of its chain this year as it hopes to turn around its performance and secure its future on Britain’s high streets.

The shops that are due to close are holding clearance sales, with reductions of up to 40% and with items marked down in price until they are sold.
