Monsoon to get rent cut
Almost 270 people work in 18 Monsoon or Accessorize stores, which will trade as normal once it gets High Court protection against creditors.
The firm revealed its team attempted to negotiate a reduction in the cost of its leases with landlords in recent weeks to place the business on a strong financial footing michael kors purse outlet, but was unable to reach an agreement.
Gail Ford-Hills, retail director for Monsoon Accessorize Ireland Limited (MAIL) for Britain and Ireland, said: "We very much regret having to take this course of action michael kors outlet, but after our negotiations with landlords failed to deliver a workable proposal we realised we had no option given the on-going level of losses in the business."
Monsoon Accessorize has operated in the Republic for 18 years but has been loss-making for some time because of the economic crisis and lease costs and said it cannot continue to suffer such significant losses for an indefinite period.
High rents michael kors coupon, as well as a drop in revenue michael kors store, were also blamed for the collapse of HMV in Ireland and for B Ireland closing some stores.

Ms Ford-Hills added: "If the appointment is approved by the High Court we will work closely with Mr MacDonald to come up with the best possible solution to strengthen MAIL and secure its position in the Republic of Ireland for years to come."
