The bankrupt retailer has already closed a total of 86 stores this week, with all remaining stores scheduled to close by early October.
Within the past two weeks, the chain has closed 90 stores across the country.
The popular discounter fell into administration on August 10 after unsuccessful attempts to find backers for the company.
Poundland has since said it will acquire up to 71 stores and that Wilco employees will be prioritized for new jobs.
The low-cost retailer will rebrand its stores and prepare them to open in time for Christmas trading.
Administrators at PwC had already agreed a £13m deal to sell up to 51 Wilco stores to rival B&M.
Unfortunately, a buyer was not found for the entire business and within weeks it was announced that all 400 stores would be closing.
As a result, thousands of Wilco employees will be laid off.
Administrators have agreed to sell the retailer’s brand name and website to The Range, meaning the name will live on elsewhere but the store will soon disappear from the high street forever. Become.
On September 12th, 24 Wilco stores permanently closed, and on Thursday, September 14th, an additional 28 stores closed.
Both Wilco warehouses, known as distribution centers, also closed on September 15th.
On September 17th, 38 more stores lowered their shutters for the final time.
A further 38 stores will close today, and a further 48 stores will close on Thursday, September 21st.
PwC administrators said the closing dates for the remaining stores will be announced later.
Meanwhile, Wilko staff issued an urgent appeal to shoppers before closing.
Additionally, it has been revealed that another major supermarket may take over Wilco stores as part of a major expansion.
