Fashion retailer Quiz is set to close its remaining 37 stores by the end of June, administrators have confirmed. The high street chain appointed Interpath in February after a 'tough start' to 2026.
Closure Details
Insolvency specialists announced on Thursday that a closure plan for its final outlets will be implemented over the coming weeks. Three other stores, in Castlecourt, Belfast, Leeds, and Romford, recently shut permanently.
The precise timing for these remaining closures, and the number of staff affected, is yet to be confirmed. Over 100 head office and warehouse jobs were put at risk when Quiz first entered administration.
It is the second time Quiz had fallen into administration in just over a year, having collapsed in February 2025 before immediately being bought in a so-called pre-pack deal by a subsidiary of the founding Ramzan family.
Concessions and Stock Clearance
Quiz concessions in New Look and Matalan stores in the UK are not included in the administration and remain unaffected. Remaining stock is being delivered to its stores, with heavy discounts of at least 60% as administrators seek to sell off as much as possible to help pay the collapsed firm's outstanding debts.
Alistair McAlinden, head of Interpath in Scotland and joint administrator, said: 'As we head into the May bank holiday weekend, we would encourage shoppers to visit their local store as we commence our final closing down sale.'
Geoff Jacobs, managing director at Interpath and fellow joint administrator, said: 'We'd once again like to say a huge thank you to Quiz staff who have shown such dedication and professionalism under difficult circumstances.'
