The newspaper said the company statement cited “serious cashflow problems” that began during the COVID-19 pandemic and have continued amid high inflation and a consumer spending squeeze.
Scotch & Soda Global BV distributes its clothes and has around 225 retail stores globally, including 70 franchise outlets, according to filings at the Dutch Chamber of Commerce.
The FD reported the company had sales of 342.5 million euros in the twelve months ended May 30, 2022, citing a lawyer who has been appointed curator.
