A POPULAR fashion retailer has announced it will be closing its flagship Somerset store after more than six years in town.
The independent fashion brand Clathers opened its original Minehead store in October 2020 at 37 The Avenue, before closing it and later opening its new high street flagship store on July 10, 2023.
Co-owned by mother-and-son duo, Bernadette and Callum Langdon, the Clathers brand has developed a unique collection of womenswear fashion, footwear and accessories since.
The Minehead store, recognised as the brand's flagship space, has been confirmed to close permanently in the new year, with a final date yet to be confirmed.
Describing the decision as "not easy" and that it comes with "heavy hearts", the family-run team announced the closure will also include a closing-down sale with up to 20% off full-price items.
Clathers Minehead store set to close in January next year
"We have an announcement," said a spokesperson for Clathers via social media.
"With heavy hearts we share the news that our Minehead flagship store will be closing its doors in the new year.
"A date for our final day of trading in Minehead is yet to be confirmed, but we expect this to be sometime in January 2027.
"This hasn’t been an easy decision to make, and we want to take a moment to thank our wonderful team for their hard work, loyalty and support throughout this time.
"The good news [is that] the Ilfracombe Clathers will be remaining open and we hope to see you there.
"We will be holding a closing down sale [with] 20% off on full price items.
"Some items are already reduced, meaning there will be offers across every single item in store.
"We hope to see you in Ilfracombe."
You can find the deals whilst stock lasts at the store located at number 7, The Parade, Minehead, TA24 5NL.
