Abercrombie & Fitch

Abercrombie & Fitch had four significant stores that would cease operations on or before January 31, 2021. Most of Abercrombie & Fitch’s stores in London, Munich, Paris, and Dusseldorf, Germany, planned to shut down before the COVID 19 outbreak. Abercrombie & Fitch’s stores in Brussels, Madrid, and Fukuoka, Japan, would shut down within the year upon the leases’ expirations.

Nine West

Nine West tried to settle most of its debts by negotiating parts of the company and applying for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Nine West had a $1.5 billion deficit, but twenty-five of its stores would remain. Nine West’s Easy Spirit brand would phase out, and Nine West would focus on Anne Klein, Kasper Grouper, and One Jeanswear.
