Closing date revealed for Morrisons Daily store in Stewarton

It was announced last month that the store would shut its doors as part of a host of closures for the chain across the UK.

It is one of two stores in Scotland and another 15 in the rest of the UK to be axed by the company.

The Stewarton shop will close for the final time on Wednesday, April 16.

There is another Morrisons Daily in Kilmaurs - about three miles away.

Morrisons chief executive Rami Baitéih said: “The changes we are announcing are a necessary part of our plans to renew and reinvigorate Morrisons and enable us to focus our investment into the areas that customers really value and that can play a full part in our growth. 

“Although these changes are relatively small in the context of the overall scale of the Morrisons business, we do not take lightly the disruption and uncertainty they will cause to some of our colleagues.

"We will of course take particular care to look after all of them well through the coming changes.”
