Jobs lost with Aberdeen Journals shop closure

Ten jobs could be lost with the closure of the Aberdeen Journals shop in the city's Union Street, it has been announced.

Owners DC Thomson said its intention was to close its retail shop in March.

The company said the shop was "no longer financially viable to sustain", placing about 10 positions at risk.

A company spokesperson said: "We intend to work with our staff to ensure the best possible outcome for each individual."

The statement added: "In the current economic climate our Aberdeen shop was becoming increasingly less viable so we're concentrating on what we do best."
