Boots has said they will close 300 of their British stores, in an effort to consolidate branches within 'close proximity' of each other.
With four Boots stores in Edinburgh's city centre alone, it could mean closures in the Scottish capital. A number of British sites were closed earlier this year with more set to shut down before the end of the year.
The locations of the closing stores have not been confirmed yet. An employer of 52,000 people, the move will reduce the chain's locations from around 2,200 to just 1,900.
