The deal quickly follows Morrisons’ acquisition of seven Jessops stores earlier in the year.
The Blockbuster purchase gives Morrisons quick access to a significant number of high street and neighbourhood locations across the country, particularly in South East England as it accelerates the expansion of its Morrisons M local convenience offering. Morrisons hopes to have the stores trading by the end of the summer.
Morrisons convenience stores will switch from the current M local name to a new Morrisons M local fascia.
