Overview
- Police kept the Centre Bourse store closed all day Thursday for public‑order reasons, with one officer slightly injured during interventions.
- The first two days saw crowd surges, fights and attempted thefts, forcing early shutdowns and evacuations at both Centre Bourse and Prado.
- On Friday an expanded security deployment controlled access to restore calm, as customers queued for hours before opening.
- Steep promotions reported up to 80% have drawn thousands since the liquidation began on October 15.
- Both Marseille stores are in judicial liquidation with final closure due at the end of November, and about 145 employees are covered by a state‑validated job‑protection plan; La Provence reports the Prado site will not open on Saturday.
