Wickes Buys Focus DIY

Hertford's Focus DIY store in Ware Road has been bought by Wickes.

Following the collapse of the DIY chain, Wickes' parent company Travis Perkins has purchased 13 of the company's stores and will convert them to Wickes before the end of the year. This will bring the number of Wickes stores to 216 nationwide.

All staff at the store will be retained.
