Supervalu Northside Closure - Devastating loss for local community.

The Supervalu at Derry's Northside Shopping Centre closes by end of March 2026.

Manager Declan Corry cited soaring rates, insurance, and competition after 16 tough years as unavoidable reasons.

Generations relied on this spot for daily essentials, quick chats, and neighborhood ties since its Wellworths days.

Shoppers from Shantallow, Galliagh, and Carnhill now face longer treks amid retail shifts shaking Northside.

Up to 30 staff members confront redundancy, many with decades of loyal service.

The in-store Post Office—crucial for pensioners and vulnerable residents—needs swift relocation to avoid a service gap.

Politicians including Sinn Féin MLA Ciara Ferguson and SDLP Cllr Brian Tierney urge urgent meetings for job support and Post Office fixes. Declan Corry thanked the unwavering community backing that sustained the store.

Wishing Swift Resolve

At Drive105 as a local community Station who believe in local business, we extend heartfelt best wishes to the SuperValu team and Northside families for quick resolutions, new opportunities, and a brighter future street ahead.

Local spirit endures.
