"Therefore, we feel it is only right to support our valued store teams by giving them extended time off around Christmas and New Year."

This meant that the company allowed its workers to finish at 5pm on Christmas Eve 2024 and the store reopened several days later on December 27.

On New Year's Eve, the shop will operate under its regular hours before closing on January 1, 2025.

It will reopen as normal on January 2, 2025.
