saintwarwick Posted 12 January, 2009 Share Posted 12 January, 2009 Amongst all the doom and gloom what with Wedgwood just announcing job losses and Land of leather going into administration, Poundland (like for like sales increased by 4% over christmas) is looking to expand with another 30 stores opening this year creating 1,000 jobs.
