The pandemic has caused Arcadia's stores to close in two national lockdowns.

"In the face of the most difficult trading conditions we have ever experienced, the obstacles we encountered were far too severe," said Ian Grabiner.. Arcadia's brands have been hit by two national lockdowns, which forced non-essential businesses, including clothing stores, to shut, alongside falling demand for footwear and formal clothing.

Its brands were squeezed between the likes of Inditex's Zara, H&M, and Primark, and online-only players ASOS and Boohoo. Mike Ashley's Frasers Group said on Monday it was interested in participating in any Arcadia sale process.
