Internacionale: Rochdale store not closed yet

Internacionale

The fate of Internacionale in the Wheatsheaf Centre is still unknown after it was announced at the end of last week that administrators PwC are to close eight stores - with the Rochdale store not being on that list.

It is understood that these eight closures are the first since Internacionale entered administration in late February.

Bruce Cartwright, joint administrator and partner at PwC said: “Since appointment, the administrators of Internacionale have been assessing the viability of the company store portfolio. As a result of this ongoing review, the administrators have taken the difficult decision to close eight stores this week, which means that 91 staff working at these stores will be made redundant in due course. The PwC team is making every effort to assist staff at this difficult time. The administrators will provide further updates as developments occur.”

Last time Internacionale was in a similar situation, the Rochdale store was saved from closure.
