Wilko will shut the doors of its last remaining stores on Sunday October 8 as the collapse of the historic retailer comes to a close.
The hardware and furnishings retailer fell into administration last month after it came under pressure from weak consumer spending and debts to suppliers.
But B&M and Poundland have purchased a handful of stores which could reopen in the future.
The Range recently snapped up the Wilko brand, including the name and website, in a £5million deal with administrators.
Now, a message on the Wilko website is promising customers that home delivery is “returning soon”.
Wilko was originally founded by James Kemsey Wilkinson in Leicester in 1930 and employed 12,500 workers before its collapse.
