UK's N Brown looks to close all 20 stores and move online
British clothing retailer N Brown Group Plc said on Thursday it was looking to close all its stores and move entirely online, the latest in a string of chains cutting back their High Street presence due to the tough retail environment. Many British retailers, including Marks & Spencer (Frankfurt: 534418 - news) and House of Fraser, are shutting shops in the face of competition from online retailers such as Amazon, a squeeze on consumer budgets and a change in Britons’ spending habits away from fashion and toward holidays and entertainment. N Brown (LSE: BWNG.L - news) , which targets women over 30 and specialises in larger sizes, said it was considering closing its last 20 stores, due to a disappointing number of shoppers.
