Woolworths is coming back ... online
Woolworths is set to be relaunched as an online only store ... complete with pick 'n' mix sweets.
A deal worth a reported £10 million with home shopping giants Shop Direct will see the brand - which closed 807 stores in December - develop an online presence.
On the Woolworths.co.uk site they are asking people to tell them what they liked most (or disliked!) about Woolworths so that it can be incorporated into the online store.
The new site will sell entertainment products like CDs DVDs and computer games along with children's clothes.
Bosses also say customers will still be able to but the famous pick 'n' mix sweets ... they just won't be able to 'taste' a few before they get to the till.
A spokesperson for Shop Direct - which snapped up the Woolworths and Ladybird names - said: "We are very proud to be bringing Woolworths back. It is an iconic British name and this is it's 100th year anniversary."
