    Anyone elses Thornton's closing down? I went into Durham and ours is closed.
    They have suffered from general declining overall sales plus are selling to other stores.

    http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/news/AN_1413200473062514300/2nd-update-thorntons-pins-first-quarter-sales-decline-on-order-timing.aspx

    Online & international seem proftable though:

    Quote:
    Within its FMCG divison, Thorntons said the declining first-quarter sales were due to the fluctuations in order patterns in its UK commercial channel, although its said international sales rose almost 21%.
    It said its retail division sales sales declined further, as its continued to close unprofitable stores. Within the division, like-for-like sales fell by 3.7%, while franchise sales declined by 19.1% due to the timing of orders and weakness in footfall, and consumer direct sales rose 3.2%.
