Beales department store in Perth will be closed down, it has been confirmed.
Administrators KPMG announced on Friday evening that the Fair City branch will be one of 12 outlets to shut their doors in around eight weeks time.
A spokesperson for KPMG said: “No offers have been received in respect of selling all 23 stores as a going concern.
“As a result, the joint administrators are now in the process of developing plans with store directors and management teams to implement the closure of 12 stores.”
It is anticipated that the closing stores will continue to trade, running closing down sales for around eight weeks.
Employees across these stores will be retained to assist with trading over the weeks ahead, and the joint administrators and their teams will continue to work closely with staff during this period.
The other outlets to close are:
- Bournemouth
- Hexham
- Worthing
- Tonbridge
- Peterborough
