Overview
- An investment group led by former Molton Brown and The Body Shop chief Charles Denton will relaunch the retailer in a phased restart beginning early next year.
- The initial wave targets 30 to 50 locations primarily in Northwest England, with exact branches yet to be confirmed.
- Several hundred former employees are expected to be rehired as stores come back online.
- Interpath Advisory, appointed on September 5 after the collapse, had closed nearly all sites and recorded about 444 job losses.
- The new owners say they will work with landlords, suppliers and ex-staff to execute a cost-disciplined reset that restores Bodycare’s affordable beauty and personal-care offer.
