Ted Baker to Close 15 UK Stores, Affecting 245 Jobs
The closures, including four London locations, are part of a restructuring effort to save the iconic British fashion brand.
- Administrators announced the closure of 15 Ted Baker stores across the UK, resulting in approximately 245 job losses.
- The closures include stores in major cities such as London, Birmingham, and Manchester, with four locations in London facing shutdown.
- The decision comes after the company's UK retail arm entered administration last month, following financial struggles.
- Authentic Brands Group, the parent company, is in discussions with potential partners to revive Ted Baker in the UK and Europe.
- The restructuring aims to improve business performance and secure a future for the remaining 31 stores and 564 staff in the UK and Ireland.
