Two fashion brands have signed up to open stores at the £85 million extension to The Beacon in Eastbourne.
Quiz has been having a tough time of late and in a trading update on Wednesday it said “the challenging trading conditions reported at the time of the group's announcement on 11 June have persisted over the summer.”
An analyst this week has cast doubt on the measures that under-pressure fashion retailer Quiz is taking to address some of its problems and get back to the dynamic growth it used to enjoy.
Quiz may have seen sales rising in its latest year but its profits plunged and the company is now focusing more heavily on growth areas such as its international ops, e-tail, as well as cutting costs.
With prices ranging from £6.99 to £17.99, Quiz Petite features 60 pieces across occasionwear, casualwear and holiday items including dresses, jumpsuits, denim, trousers, shorts, tops and co-ords.
Quiz's shares rose on Thursday on investor relief that its huge Debenhams business seems safe for now and that sales are still rising, even though profits remain under pressure.
Aurora Fashions Group said House of Fraser’s demise had a £5m impact on its earnings, partly blaming it for a £10m increase in pre-tax loss to £39.9 million. Revenues increased by £2m to £544.6m.
The difficult environment has hit Quiz Clothing sales so far this year and while online continue to rise strongly, its stores have proved weak and this means profits will be lower than expected.
It’s encouraging when a retailer reports sales up in high single-digits over Christmas as Quiz did on Friday. But it wasn’t quite the good news it seemed as there was a mild profit warning and talk of heavy discounting.
Branded-but-price-conscious fashion and beauty is of growing importance in the UK and Findel is reaping the rewards as its Studio operation expands and sees potential for the future too, despite slowing growth.
