Sincere Central store to close by year-end, leaving only Mong Kok branch citywide

Sincere Department Store's Central branch posted a notice announcing its closure when its lease expires in the fourth quarter this year, withdrawing from its century-long base on Des Voeux Road Central, with only the Mong Kok Chung Wa Centre branch remaining citywide. A regular customer made a special trip to shop yesterday, saying they would spend "without limit"; a staff member of about 12 years said they were reluctant to part with the store and did not know what the future held.
