The Coop says staff will be relocated when its Bridge store closes

The Channel Islands Coop is to close its Bridge Locale store at the end of the year.

The company said there would be no redundancies and all staff members would be relocated to other stores.

It added the in-store post office would be moved to its store in Nocq Road, St Sampson, in the new year.

CI Coop chief executive Mark Cox said the business, "as with many other retailers, has faced many challenges in recent years".

"By making difficult decisions like this, it allows us to optimise the utilisation of our limited workforce, reduce costs and channel resources towards areas that make the most benefit to our members, team and community," he said.
