Shop Set To Close

Market Harborough’s Bonmarché shop seems set for closure after the company went into administration last month.

‘Closing down sale’ signs have appeared in the windows of the women’s clothing store in St Mary’s Place, which employs around ten full and part-time staff.

Administrators say as part of a review of the business, they have identified stores that could close if a buyer for the company can’t be found.

A spokesperson for the joint administrators told Hfm: “All stores remain open for business and up for sale as we continue to explore all options for the future of Bonmarché.

“As part of our review of the business, we have identified a proportion of our store network that could close if a buyer can’t be found.

“With a considerable amount of interest from prospective buyers, we remain confident that a sale can be achieved.”

Bonmarche has 318 shops nationwide, employing 2,887 people.
