Stricken UK high street retailer Ted Baker is to close its Irish stores within the next week.
Ted Baker has seven locations in Ireland, most of which operate as concessions, in Grafton St, Arnott’s, Blanchardstown, Kildare, Limerick, Cork and Galway.
It was announced in March this year that Teneo Financial Advisory Limited had been appointed as Joint Administrators of the retailer's parent company No Ordinary Designer Label Limited.
The administrators then announced plans to shut 15 shops in the UK in April, with the loss of 250 jobs as a result of the closures and cuts to the fashion brand’s head office.
The Ted Baker website is also closed, displaying a message that reads "we are not taking orders right now" and directing customers to their returns portal.
