BHS The end of an era 13:55 - Apr 25 with 4633 viewsLord_Bony

11,000 jobs to go including the closure of the Swansea branch.

The present owners bought it for a pound off Philip Greene took out a couple of million for themselves then put it into administration...that's not right..

I called into the Newport branch today out of curiosity and I have to say...jeez..it was like shopping in the 70s I dont think anything has changed except decimalization on the price tags.

The place was grubby,plain and run down...its obvious the company needed investment put back in not money taken out. Huge store but what a waste of space,yes they love their light fitting dept there as well!

In my opinion that brand and their stores could have been turned around big time if someone had put in the TLC required and sold things that were more flavour of the month....the place was packed out and the tills busy...albeit for mainly the senior citizens.

What a waste of another great British institution.

Sir Philip Green slammed in the press for plundering BHS. Made an absolute fortune out of it along with the other parasites that sucked the life blood out of the company. May be stepped of his knighthood.

11,000 jobs and 22,000 pensions at risk.

Could have been avoided.

Any ordinary person would be done for fraud. Connections eh.

Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.
