A decision to close The Body Shop in Cwmbran was made after the company reviewed its ‘store portfolio performance.’
The empty unit on Monmouth Square is in between Costa Coffee and Claire’s. Shoppers discovered the shop had shut in mid-January.
A spokesperson for the Body Shop told Cwmbran Life: “The Cwmbran store closed for trade on 15th January, and we handed back the store to the landlord on 25th January. We regularly review our store portfolio performance which led to the decision not to renew the lease of The Body Shop in Cwmbran. The Body Shop has been in consultation over the last few weeks with the members of the store team to discuss job opportunities elsewhere within the business.
“Valued customers can still purchase their favourite products by shopping online and via the The Body Shop At Home.”
