Overview
- Alistair McAlinden and Geoff Jacobs of Interpath were appointed joint administrators on February 5 to Orion Retail Ltd, Tarak International Ltd and Zandra Systems Ltd, which trade as Quiz Clothing.
- All 40 UK stores and seven concessions in Ireland remain open under an immediate clearance sale, with items purchased from February 5 sold as seen and undelivered online orders cancelled.
- Refunds are not being issued, gift cards and credit notes are invalid, and returns are limited to in‑store exchanges for faulty items or for pre‑February 5 purchases.
- Quiz concessions operating inside New Look and Matalan are not included in the administration and are reported as unaffected.
- Administrators cite weak Christmas trading, rising costs and changing consumer habits, and with 565 employees in total, hundreds of store roles remain at risk as buyers are sought after prior restructurings including a 2025 pre‑pack buyback.
