Description

On 4 February Van der Ven Fashion was declared bankrupt, resulting in the dismissal of all 170 employees. The chain ran 28 shops in the southern and western parts of the Netherlands. It is not yet clear if some of the chain's activities can be revived. If it is possible, this could result in a lower number of dismissals.
