Argos in Midsomer Norton could become a High Street casualty of the coronavirus pandemic, with an announcement made by owners, Sainsbury’s, today.

Sainsbury’s is to cut 3,500 jobs, all of its meat, fish and deli counters, and 420 Argos outlets.

Whilst Sainsbury’s did not name the Midsomer Norton store specifically, in a statement made to The Journal today, they said: "Any standalone Argos store which has not reopened since March will remain closed permanently. We have not confirmed any other closures at this stage."

More on this story as we receive it.
