M&S is to close two of its distribution centres in Long Eaton, Derbyshire, and Thorncliffe, Sheffield next year. Combined, the two centres employ 662 workers. The retailer is revamping its warehouse network in a bid to save money and improve clothing stock availability.

The latest closures add to the four warehouses previously closed and means that from next year M&S clothing business will have six warehouses in total to serve the whole country.
