On Tuesday, the High Court placed the company under the control of provisional liquidators.

Irish Retail chain Born Clothing has announced the closure of its 15 stores across the country with the loss of over 100 jobs. 

The company, which opened its first store in Newtownsmith in Galway in 2009, also has stores in Westmeath and Laois and made the announcement in an Instagram post yesterday.

The High Court appointed provisional liquidators to the group on Tuesday after hearing business difficulties arose for reasons which included the pandemic, the increase in the minimum wage and high business rates. 

A notice on their website indicates that gift vouchers cannot be accepted because they are in liquidation.
