JTF Mega Discount Warehouse stores were a kind of downmarket equivalent of The Range. Housed in giant shed like buildings, they sold a wide range of items including furniture & garden furniture, toiletries, DIY materials, laundry items, DIY items, gardening items, a small range of food and wine and a very small range of pet food & equipment plus other items. Mainly due to closures during Covid-19 lockdowns, the company went into administration in 2021. It was bought out of administration by a subsidiary of Poundstretcher but the size of the stores & the rents proved too much to be viable. The business was then closed with some departments and staff moving into existing Poundstretcher stores which are much smaller. The store here in Kidderminster closed finally on the 3rd March 2022.
