By Bathstore, the UK’s largest specialist bathroom retailer has gone into administration, putting around 530 jobs at risk. This is after the company failed to find a buyer.
Staff at the Grimsby and Scunthorpe stores are among those facing uncertainty, along with colleagues in the other 133 stores, plus those at the company’s head office in Welwyn Garden City.
Founded in 1990, the company has struggled in recent years, along with many high street retailers. Administrators from business services firm BDO said the company would continue to trade as normal for now, as they hoped to sell the company as a going concern. The administrators have also said that Bathstore should be able to fulfil the majority of outstanding customer orders, although all installation services have ceased.
