The Maypole Grocery store in Warwick is to close down at the end of the week after more
The Maypole Grocery store in Warwick is to close down at the end of the week after more than 50 years trading in the town. Allied Suppliers Ltd. the group owning the store, have decided to cease operations in the Elizabethan buildings at 25, Market Place, because it is no longer a viable financial proposition. The staff employed at the shop will be offered other jobs in the area. A spokesman for Allied Suppliers in London said: " The premises are not big enough for the trade we do today. The rates and costs of the building do not justify it. Its an attractive building but its just not practicable." He said the group would be on the look-out for more suitable premises in the town.

EDITORS COMMENTS
The Maypole Grocery store in Warwick, a beloved fixture of the town for over 50 years, is set to close its doors at the end of this week. The Elizabethan building at 25 Market Place has been home to Allied Suppliers Ltd. , but unfortunately, they have made the difficult decision to cease operations due to financial constraints. Despite their best efforts, it seems that the premises are no longer suitable for modern trade demands. The closure will undoubtedly leave a void in the hearts of locals who have relied on this historic grocery store throughout the years. However, there is some silver lining amidst this news as all staff members will be offered alternative employment opportunities within the area. A spokesperson from Allied Suppliers in London expressed their regret about closing down such an attractive and iconic building but emphasized that practicality must prevail. They cited rising costs and limited space as major factors contributing to their decision. As Warwick bids farewell to The Maypole Grocery store, hopes remain high that another suitable location can be found for Allied Suppliers Ltd. This photograph captures not just a simple shopfront but also serves as a reminder of cherished memories and community connections forged within those walls.
