New Look: Up to 980 jobs at risk following announced closures
- New Look has announced it will be closing 60 UK stores after a restructuring plan to make the chain profitable.
- The relevant store locations are revealed in a map below, which shows the branches affected.
- The changes will also mean up to 1,000 jobs being scrapped as part of the plan, reducing the overall workforce.
The UK store closures will take place over the next 12 months, with some staff already working there deployed to different locations.
Closures will happen in store locations across the countries, from the Cardiff store in Wales to Borehamwood store in Hertfordshire.
The retail chain will also cut 1,000 jobs across their workforce in a bid to resolve financial issues, bosses have revealed.
New Look is set to close up to 60 stores across the UK
The move was a “tough decision”, said New Look executive chairman Alistair McGeorge, in an interview with the BBC.
He explained the chain needed to go under a company voluntary arrangement (CVA), which is an insolvency procedure involving creditors, in order to restore its profits.
He said: “ "It is clear we need to reduce our fixed cost base. We are therefore pleased to have gained the support of our creditors to address our over-rented store estate.”
”The CVA is one of a number of necessary actions we are taking to get the company back on track.”
