I know that a lot of depots in Wales did pass over to a developer who seemed to be building a lot of superstores for the now defunct kwik Save.
Yes it did.
Kwiksave was next door to Mold depot, the building is still there but since Kwiksave closed down it only contains a small Farmfoods store - the Mold depot site is now occupied by a Homebase store.
