British tycoon Philip Green’s Arcadia fashion group has collapsed into administration, putting more than 13,000 jobs at risk and becoming the country’s biggest corporate casualty of the COVID-19 pandemic so far.

Deloitte said late on Monday it had been appointed Arcadia’s administrator and would seek buyers for the group’s brands: Topshop, Topman, Dorothy Perkins, Wallis, Miss Selfridge, Evans, Burton and Outfit.

Arcadia’s close to 500 stores would continue to trade, its online platforms would remain operational, and supplies to concession partners would continue, Deloitte said.

No redundancies were being immediately announced, it added.
