Amberley Jewellers to close Waterlooville store in June

Amberley Jewellers in Waterlooville will close its town-centre shop in June 2025 after over 30 years of service. The store, established in 1992, thanked customers for their support in a Facebook post. The jeweller offers a variety of gold and silver jewellery, along with repair services. Its Hythe store, opened in 2023, will remain open. The closure reflects a trend of retailers shutting stores due to rising costs and competition from online shopping. Many shops are struggling to maintain profitability amid changing consumer habits.
