The Moore’s Lane store is just a few hundred metres from the larger Boots store in Lurgan’s Market Street.

In June the firm had said it was ‘consolidating’ those stores which were in close proximity to each other. It is understood no redundancies are being sought during this ‘consolidation’ exercise.

Boots revealed in June it was set to shut 300 stores across the UK. The firm said it would continue to ‘consolidate a number of stores in close proximity to each other’, leaving it with a network of 1,900 stores across the UK.
