from memory I think the lease at the fort branch was for a fixed term of six years, as they got a cheaper deal at the time of opening. At the time at was probably the right thing to do, but in hindsight it ended up costing them big time. I believe that decisions like this meant Jessops as a whole became very rigid, and couldn't adapt with the times fast enough.
