Quiz Closes Final 20 UK Stores as Administrators Complete Wind‑Down

Interpath Advisory will run deep‑discount closing sales to realise stock for creditors with concessions in New Look and Matalan kept outside the administration.

Overview

  • Quiz entered administration on 5 February and joint administrators Alistair McAlinden and Geoff Jacobs have overseen a phased closure of the remaining estate.
  • Interpath confirmed that the final 20 standalone Quiz stores will shut by the end of trade on Saturday, 20 June, with closing‑down sales active across those sites.
  • Administrators are offering large discounts of up to around 70–80% and have warned that all sales during the clearances are final and some gift cards or credit notes may be invalid.
  • The group was reported to owe more than £40 million when administrators were appointed and earlier head office and warehouse redundancies were reported, with further job losses expected as stores close.
  • Concessions operating inside New Look and Matalan were not included in the administration and will remain trading, a detail that leaves some revenue channels open while the wider UK high street fashion sector continues to face heavy pressure.
