Variety Stores in the United Kingdom

The performance of variety stores in 2021 was heavily linked to how the lockdowns in 2020 impacted the store-based sales of certain players. Therefore, variety stores can be grouped into two categories. Some retailers, including B&M Bargains, Home Bargains or Poundland, were classified as essential retailers and were allowed to remain open, even during national lockdowns. These retailers, therefore, performed well in 2020, increasing their year-on-year value sales.
