Although Tesco acquired the brand in late January, the deal did not include any of the stores which the compancy have across the UK which put 820 jobs at risk.

It is yet another blow to the high street as a number of businesses have closed their doors post-pandemic including the likes of Debenhams, Topshop and Burton amongst others.

Tesco are likely to stock a number of Paperchase items in their stores meaning that customers will still be able to get some of their favourtie products.
