AS Robinsons winds up in Singapore, its flagship store at The Heeren will close on Dec 16. The Raffles City Shopping Centre outlet of its sister brand Marks & Spencer's will close on Dec 31.

The department store's liquidators told The Business Times this following notice of Marks & Spencer's moving out sales at Raffles City on Thursday. The liquidators clarified, however, that they are still in talks with the landlord at Raffles City, where Robinsons' second remaining store is located.

Meanwhile, Marks & Spencer said that its 10 other stores in Singapore remain open. It is only closing the Raffles City branch as the lease is signed under Robinsons.
