The Poundland Team Valley Gateshead store closed on May, 25 following a string of other store closures for the retailer.<\/p>\n

The rival discount chain has closed several locations this year including Norfolk, North Lanarkshire, Dewsbury and Ipswich.<\/p>\n

But it is not all bad news for shoppers, Poundland told The Sun that it has opened or relocated 33 new stores so far this year.<\/p>\n

It added that it plans to end the year with more stores than it started with and shoppers will have more space to browse.<\/p>\n

B&M is also relocating some stores to bigger premises as well as opening up in new locations.<\/p>\n

It has already completed a lot of its plans to relocate and refurbish, we have the full list below: <\/p>\n
