Clothing store closes down

Wymondham-based bike clothing specialist The Motorcycle Clothing Centre has ceased trading. Shop owner John ‘Benny’ Bennett, who ran the store with his wife Susan, has blamed tough economic conditions and strong local competition for the shutdown.
Speaking to BDN after his last day of trading on September 27, John said: “It’s a sad day, and it was difficult to make the decision to close. I have been trading for 22 years and have made many friends both in the industry and customers.
“I’d like to say a big thank you to all my customers over the years.”
Full story in the next issue of BDN.
