M&S clothing to “remain fully open” during second lockdown
M&S has 260 UK stores that sell both clothing and food, out of a total of around 950.
Marks & Spencer has confirmed that its clothing and home division will remain open despite the second Covid-19 lockdown taking place in England on November 5.
Despite reporting a half-year loss, M&S chief executive Steve Rowe is optimistic about peak trade.
From Thursday, non-essential retail in England will have to close until at least December 2, in an effort to fight against the spread of Covid-19.
