River Island faces collapse 'by end of the month' unless restructuring deal is approved
River Island is at risk of collapsing into administration within weeks if it fails to get approval for a radical restructuring plan. The high street fashion brand currently employs around 5,500 people. The London-based company also needs to secure more funding for later this year in order to preserve its future, according to documents shared with creditors. It has laid out a major rescue plan which will see it shut 33 stores and pay reduced rents on a further 71 shops. Landlords are being asked to cut rents for three years and potentially stop payments completely on some sites in a bid to stem losses. The plan would need the backing of 75% of the group's creditors, who are mostly landlords, at a hearing on August 7. It would also need court approval. However, company documents first reported by the Telegraph warned that the chain would be 'unable to pay its debts by the end of the month" if the plan is rejected. It indicated that the company will not be able to keep trading if it fails on these payments and would therefore 'be subject to administration or other insolvency proceedings'. The documents also highlighted that the company faces a £10 million funding need in September, which could balloon to £50 million by next year. A River Island spokeswoman said: 'River Island circulated its proposals for a restructuring plan to creditors on June 20." 'In combination with the company's ongoing transformation strategy, the plan is a proactive measure to place the company on a firm footing. 'We have been having positive conversations with key stakeholders and are confident that we will achieve approval of the plan in the next few weeks.'

Historic Welsh Gear Manufacturer Ceases Trading After 100 Years
North Wales manufacturing firm Woollacott Gears Ltd has closed after 100 years. Based at Llay Hall Industrial Estate, in Wrexham, Woollacott specialised in the production of precision gears and engineering components. The company was established more than 100 years ago and was recognised for its high-quality manufacturing, with past clients including BAE and other major industrial names. Manchester-based property and asset experts Landwood Group is now overseeing the sale of more than 450 lots of precision engineering machinery following the closure. Following their appointment by Leonard Curtis as Liquidators in late June, Landwood Group's machinery and business assets division is now overseeing the sale of Woollacott's extensive plant and machinery. Jeff Wignall, director at Landwood Group, said: 'It's always sad when a business like Woollacott Gears closes, especially one that's been part of Wrexham's history for more than 100 years. 'It was a well-respected local firm and it's important the sale reflects that. We're handling it with the care and precision it deserves. 'The auction offers a rare chance to get hold of specialist gear cutting machinery and associated equipment at a fraction of the usual cost. With more than 450 lots available, there's something for every business, whether you're upgrading, expanding or entering the gear manufacturing space for the first time. 'Our auctions always attract strong interest and with quality equipment like this in short supply, we're expecting some competitive bidding. It's not one to miss.' The sale includes high-spec CNC gear cutting machines, tooling, and stocks of parts and components, alongside a range of other manufacturing assets. Viewing of all equipment will be available at Llay Hall Industrial Estate, Mold Road, Cefn-y-bedd, Wrexham, LL12 9YG on Wednesday 6 August 2025 from 10am to 4pm. The auction will close from 10am on Monday 11 August 2025. The assets are now live for bidding in an online auction via Bidspotter ( and i-bidder (

The address for the company was given as 3 St David's Business Park, Dalgety Bay. Any parties claiming an interest were asked to contact the court within eight days. It is unknown how many employees have been affected. The Dalgety Bay company is the latest construction firm to collapse.
