Quiz to Close All 37 Remaining UK Stores by End of June

Administrators will run steep closing‑down sales to liquidate stock while still seeking buyers for assets.

Overview

  • Administrators Interpath confirmed on Thursday that a phased closure plan will shut the retailer’s remaining 37 UK stores by the end of June and that three branches in Belfast, Leeds and Romford have already closed.
  • The company went into administration in February and that process led to 109 redundancies at Quiz’s Glasgow head office and its Bellshill warehouse, with the website taken offline earlier this year.
  • Remaining stock is being moved into open shops and sold at heavy discounts of roughly 60% or more as administrators aim to raise cash to pay creditors.
  • Exact closing dates for individual stores and the final number of staff who will lose their jobs have not been confirmed, and Quiz concessions inside New Look and Matalan are not part of the administration and remain trading.
  • This is the second administration since February 2025 when assets were sold in a pre‑pack to a company linked to the founding Ramzan family, a collapse that underlines enduring pressure on mid‑market high‑street fashion and risks further local job and town‑centre impacts.
