Telford store closes down as national clothing firm Quiz goes bust

The Telford branch of high street retailer Quiz is included on a list of 23 stores which are set to close nationwide after the firm called in the administrators.

The brand was bought in a pre-pack insolvency deal, which has seen new owners Orion save 42 of its shops, however the store on New Row in Telford Centre is one of those the new owners have decided is “loss-making or unsustainable”.
