Hoardings have been placed around the Kathmandu store while workers remove asbestos from the property.
Kathmandu spokeswoman Helen McCombie said the store would be closed until mid-April.
“There has been no contamination at all in the store which is supported by air monitoring and other testing completed by independent qualified persons which confirmed this,” she said.
“There has been no risk at all to customers or Kathmandu team members.”
Ms McCombie said the store manager had been transferred to another store and other staff were taking leave.
