Leen Bakker and Kwantum are “under financial pressure”: FD

Home furnishings chains Leen Bakker and Kwantum are under financial pressure and looking for solutions, their parent company Homefashion Group has confirmed to the Financieele Dagblad.
“Like other retail organisations, we are currently experiencing challenging market conditions in the Netherlands and Belgium. High cost inflation and weak consumer confidence are putting results under pressure,” the company told the FD in a written statement.
Homefashion Group declined to comment on a possible sale but said it is exploring “different options”. In March the company appointed restructuring specialist Rob Schuyt to stabilise the business and he too told the FD “everything is on the table.”
