Fashion retailer Ted Baker is to close all of its UK stores this week, ending its high street presence and putting more than 500 jobs at risk.

Its remaining 31 stores in the UK and Ireland will close before the end of the day on Tuesday and the website has also been taken down.

Ted Baker was founded by Ray Kelvin, who opened his first store in Glasgow in 1988, and the brand's clothing and accessories are widely recognised for their floral and patterned designs.

Its future was put at risk when the company behind its UK stores, No Ordinary Designer Label Limited (NODL), filed for bankruptcy in March.

Another US company, Authentic Brands, which owns Ted Baker's intellectual property, said that despite “tireless efforts” it had been unable to “overcome” the financial problems facing the business.

Authentic attributed the lawsuit to “damage” caused during the partnership with Dutch firm AARC Group and the “significant level of arrears” that had built up during the partnership.

Ted Baker had also flagged economic challenges in recent years, having faced weaker consumer demand and difficulties in its supply chain, after being among luxury retailers hit hard during the Covid pandemic.

All remaining Ted Baker stores in the UK and Republic of Ireland are expected to have closed by the end of the day on Tuesday, after the company behind the fashion chain collapsed in March.

More than 500 jobs are at risk as a result of the closures that will see their stores disappear from the high streets.
