Ten Homebase stores in England, Scotland and Northern Ireland will become big Sainsbury's supermarkets around Christmas time.
Sainsbury’s created Homebase in 1979 before selling it in 2006 Gone are the days of all your DIY needs in one convenient location – at least they will be for anyone living near 10 Homebase stores sold to Sainsbury’s. The chain, which sold off Homebase in 2006, has snapped them up in a £130million deal that will see the sites converted into big supermarkets. It will mean nearly 400,000 extra people will now live within a 10-minute drive of a Sainsbury’s supermarket, the chain claimed.
The list of Homebase stores set to close ‘Our ambition is to be customers’ first choice for food and these new stores will showcase some of the best that Sainsbury’s supermarkets have to offer to even more communities around the country.’ A total of six stores across England, Scotland and Northern Ireland are confirmed to close before Christmas, with a remaining four believed to shut down shortly afterwards.
