Breaking: Popular department store Harris Scarfe goes in voluntary administration

More than 1800 staff and 66 stores at risk - by Amy Sinclair
  • 11 Dec 2019

Popular department store Harris Scarfe has gone into voluntary administration amid reports the retailer has ‘gone broke’.

The shock move means that more than 1800 staff are now at risk - as is the future of 66 stores. 

Breaking: Popular department store Harris Scarfe goes in voluntary administration

Harris Scarfe has been running for 169 and recently took on several big name influencers and celebrities in a bid to lift sales. 

It’s believed Deloitte Restructuring Services - who are the voluntary administrators - are hoping to re-purpose and sell the business. 

'Harris Scarfe is a longstanding retail institution,' said administrator Vaughan Strawbridge.

'We will be making every effort to secure a future for the business and intend to commence an immediate sale of business process.' 

It’s believed all gift cards will be honoured for the time being, and stores will continue to operate over Christmas with staff still being paid. 

Harris Scarfe is the latest big retail business to go into voluntary administration in 2019, with Napoleon Perdis, Bardot, Crinitis, Style Runner and four others also going bust.
