Overview
- All remaining shops are expected to shut by Saturday 27 September, completing the chain’s wind‑down.
- Interpath said a sale of the store estate is now unlikely, though it will continue to seek buyers for the Bodycare brand and other assets.
- The closures will result in 444 redundancies, with administrators supporting staff in claims to the Redundancy Payments Service.
- Since the company entered administration on 5 September, about 150 stores have closed and more than 1,000 jobs have been lost.
- Administrators linked the collapse to stock shortages, rising operating costs, a funding shortfall after an aborted stock market listing, and delays upgrading the online platform.
