Prince Albert has lost a children’s store.

The Gateway Mall location of Please Mum is one of many that closed across the country this week. The company is only keeping 21 locations open.

“As a result of significant shifts in the retail landscape, we’ve had to make tough decisions about the future of our company,” said Kathryn Adrian, Please Mum founder and CEO, in a press release.

“We’re restructuring our business in the long-term interests of the company, our employees, customers, suppliers and creditors.”

The retail chain will only keep two Saskatchewan locations, one in Saskatoon and the other in Regina.
