http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woolworths_Group_PLC

Basically it's a group of Stores that are under administration due to loss of sales and other stores. There was one I used to go to which had gone like 2 or 3 years ago.

On 26 November 2008, the trading of shares in "Woolworths Group plc" was suspended with the Woolworths plc and Entertainment UK Ltd subsidiaries entering administration. On 11 December a clearance sale in the retail outlets began.

On 17 December 2008, Administrators announced that all 807 Woolworths stores would close by the 5 January 2009 resulting in 27,000 job losses, unless a buyer is found.
