Skip the Dishes closes grocery delivery centres and lays off staff across Canada

Skip the Dishes has closed its Skip Express Lane grocery delivery centres across Canada and laid off staff. The company confirmed the shutdown of its "ghost" distribution centres, which operated without walk-in customers, and stated that affected employees are being laid off. This move comes after Skip announced an expansion of its grocery delivery offerings with Loblaw-owned stores, and follows a general slowdown in the online grocery delivery sector.
