Optimistic Quittlings will say this has nothing to do with Brexit.
"British furniture retailer Multiyork has gone into administration
Multiyork, the furniture retailer, has gone into administration, putting 550 jobs under threat.
The retailer will trade until Christmas at the earliest while administrators Duff & Phelps seek a buyer.
Multiyork will honour all existing orders placed until 22 November and customers will be contacted by the retailer.
The chain employs 547 staff in 50 stores and a manufacturing site in Thetford, Norfolk.
"Trading conditions for UK retailers continue to be difficult due to a number of factors including economic uncertainty, rising commodity prices, increasing business rates and the fall in value of the pound which has increased the cost of importing raw materials and products," said Allan Graham, a joint administrator at Duff & Phelps."

They also went bust before in 1995. Do you want to blame that on Brexit too.If I don't reply to your post,

Lots of competition in front of your very eyes multiple times every day from different companies.
Have you ever seen one ad for Multiyork? No, I bet you haven't in Luxemburg but I haven't here in the UK either. Times change and Multiyork just can't compete, it's that simple.
Of course staunch Europhiles like yourself don't like that so you try to blame it on something that hasn't happened yet. Was the collapse of BHS due to Brexit too according to you?0 -
