If you’re looking for something stylish this summer, TOFS in Cupar, Scotland, is packed with pretty dresses, linen pieces, and jeans.

There are also huge discounts across all footwear in the store – from trainers to heels.

Over in the men’s section, there is an abundance of polo shirts, gym vests, and t-shirts.

It’s worth stocking up on cleaning products and household essentials as they have a 10 percent reduction on the price.

For those sweet-toothed shoppers, there are plenty of deals across all confectionery.

Photos of the sale went on the Cupar store’s Facebook with the caption:

Up to 11 TOFS stores are already to set to close this month, including sites across Worcestershire, Durham and Cumbria .

Meanwhile, another five stores across Nairn, Market Drayton, Troon, Blairgowrie and Castle Douglas have been placed up for sale.

The Original Factory Shop has told The Sun that negotiations are ongoing with landlords – making it unclear whether these shops will remain open.

It comes as part of a major restructuring carried out by new owner Modella Capital with a number of loss making stores having to close as result.

Over June nine of these stores will close, including sites in Dorest and Durham.

Another site in Middlewich is also set to close however a date is yet to be confirmed.

You can see the full list of store closures here:

  • Milford Haven, Pembrokeshire – June 26
  • Perth – June 28
  • Chester Le Street, County Durham – June 28
  • Arbroath, Angus – June 28
  • Kidwelly, Carmarthenshire – June 28
  • Pershore, Worcestershire – June 28
  • Normanton, West Yorkshire – June 28
  • Peterhead, Aberdeenshire – June 28
  • Shaftesbury, Dorset – June 28
  • Staveley, Cumbria – July 12
  • Middlewich – TBC
  • Heswall – TBC

The following stores are also up for sale:

  • Nairn
  • Market Drayton
  • Troon
  • Blairgowrie
  • Castle Douglas

Private equity firm Modella bought The Original Factory Shop back in February and has since launched a restructuring effort to renegotiate rents at 88 TOFS stores.

Modella is known for picking up struggling retailers, having also recently acquired Hobbycraft and WHSmith’s high street shops.

It is set to rebrand all WHSmith high street stores to TGJones, and has brought in advisers to look at potential options for Hobbycraft.

At the end of April, Modella drew up plans to initiate a company voluntary arrangement (CVA) for TOFS.

Companies often use CVAs to prevent insolvency, which could otherwise result in store closures or the collapse of the entire business.

They allow firms to explore different strategies such as negotiating reduced rent rates with landlords.

TOFS previously told The Press and Journal that a “number of loss-making stores will have to close” as part of the restructuring.
