GRIMSBY'S HMV store is not among those the chain's joint administrators have identified for closure, the Grimsby Telegraph can today reveal.
Across the country, 66 of the chain's 220 UK stores will be closed over the next two months, affecting 930 staff.
Joint Administrator Nick Edwards said: "As part of our ongoing review of HMV's financial position, we have now completed a review of the store portfolio and have identified 66 loss making stores for closure.
"This step has been taken in order to enhance the prospects of securing the business' future as a going concern.
"We continue to receive strong support from staff and are extremely grateful to them for their commitment during an understandably difficult period.
All other key stakeholders remain very supportive and I continue to be hopeful of securing a future for the restructured business."
