Mothercare To Sell 121 UK Stores

The childrenswear retailer has already announced that it is to close 30 shops this year, but it has emerged that 121 stores will now be put up for sale. The chain currently operates 377 British shops, but has planned the closures to fit with the group’s new strategy of focussing on out-of-town locations.
