The news comes in the midst of grim times for the embattled Australian retail market, which has been hit by a series of high profile closures in over the past six months.

Big W announced the planned closure of 30 stores and two distribution centres over three years from April 2019.

In January, the business announced it would close at least three physical stores in the Sydney suburbs of Chullora, Auburn and Fairfield with staff redistributed across other Big W and Woolworths branches.

The chain, which is owned by Woolworths Group, made the closures after losing $85million in 2019 and $110million in 2018.
