Shuropody in Coventry city centre set to shut down

A specialist footwear store in Coventry is set to close down. Shuropody, located in West Orchards, has posters on their front windows that the store is having a 'closing down sale' with up to 50% off footwear.

The store stocks a range of comfortable footwear that has been designed and developed by senior podiatrists to ensure maximum foot healthcare. Brands include Rieker, Josef Seibel, Strive, and many more.

Shuropody includes "highly-trained" staff who help customers select the "very best" footwear. As the company is the UK's largest podiatry business, they have fully qualified HCPC-registered podiatrists or FHPs in-store to advise on foot care issues.

The news comes after the retailer went into administration in December 2022, and was sold to a subsidiary of BAAJ Capital. The company currently owns 39 stores across the UK but has suffered recent closures in Salisbury and Harrogate in May 2024.

Shuropody Coventry has a 4.2-star rating on Google reviews, with many positive experiences from customers - and it will be missed. One customer said: "Absolutely lovely place, great customer service, staff always friendly and willing to help. Been back a few times and never had any problems."

Annie Field agreed and added: "Very impressed with the quick and professional service I received. My feet feel very comfortable. Very attentive staff throughout. The treatment area allows a good degree of privacy from customers who are just browsing the shop."

It has not been yet confirmed when the Coventry store is set to close.
