Retailer confirms all The Range and wilko stores will close over Christmas for two days re-opening on the 27 December to give all its team members a well-earned break to spend with friends and family 

After what’s being hailed by store bosses as an ‘incredible growth year’ for CDS Superstores International (which operates both The Range and wilko stores across the UK), it’s been confirmed that all 200+ stores will remain closed on Boxing Day 2023 to give all its team members a well-earned festive break.

Many stores are opening for extended hours to help people get Christmas sorted in the run-up to the big day and customers should check local stores for details.     

CEO of CDS Superstores, trading as The Range and wilko, Alex Simpkin said; “It’s been an incredible year and I can’t thank all our hard-working team members enough.  We believe everyone deserves a well-earned break over the festive season, so we’ve taken the decision to close for the two-day break, no exceptions. 

“We’ve another exciting year ahead, we’ll be further strengthening The Range brand and continuing our ambitious roll-out of wilko stores across the UK and want to make sure everyone gets a chance to enjoy time with friends and family. In the meantime customers can continue to shop our great products and offers at unbelievable prices from the comfort of their sofas at both wilko.com and therange.co.uk ”
