On 2 April, the Commercial Court of Bobigny decided to liquidate the Newco clothing brand. This chain of 58 stores employed 230 people. They are therefore dismissed from 11 April, because the company has not found a buyer. Newco was founded in 2016, after the acquisition of part of the Styleco brand then in receivership, by the Franco-Chinese holding company HK Group. A company chaired by Thierry Dai, who is at the head of another French fashion chain close to closing, Défi Mode, where 220 will be dismissed.
