A DIY store is set to close this weekend, with the loss of 23 jobs.

Focus, in Rushbottom Lane, Benfleet, will close this Sunday, after administrators could not find a buyer for the store.

The chain went into administration in May. Although joint administrators found buyers for 55 of its stores, other branches will close. All of the stock at the store is being sold off at discounts of 50 per cent, 60 per cent and even 70 per cent while stocks last.

The website www.everything mustbesold.com has the latest information regarding store closures and special offers.

The stores will be opening as usual today and tomorrow, but on Sunday it may close earlier if all stock is sold.
