Slimma posted pre-tax losses of £350,000 for the 26 weeks to 2 April 2010.
This comes only days after young fashion brand, Henleys, announced the closing of 18 of their stores and the appointment of Ernst and Young as retail administrators. John Whitfield said, “Like many in the retail sector, CDU has experienced a difficult trading environment during the course of the past two years. This has been exacerbated by a further downturn in consumer spending.”
He added: “The company is trading as normal at present while all options are considered. There is already interest in the business and brands and we hope to be able to secure a going concern sale of the business and its assets in due course.”
