Jumbo Seafood announces that it will close its flagship East Coast Seafood Centre outlet on 30 September. Multiple reports say the store is the company’s first and flagship outlet at East Coast Seafood Centre, which Jumbo Seafood opened in 1987. The closure date is tied to discussions with the premises’ landlord. The group says the landlord is studying the redevelopment of East Coast Seafood Centre, which is the basis for the planned closure. While the reports confirm the shut-down of the specific outlet, they do not provide additional details on what happens to the outlet’s operations or whether other Jumbo Seafood outlets at the centre will remain open. The company’s statement focuses on the planned end date and the landlord’s redevelopment review, leaving the longer-term trajectory of the site dependent on the landlord’s decisions.
