Hudson’s Bay says it can't secure enough financing to keep at least some of its empire alive.
A closure of the entire business, which is planned pending a court appearance set for Monday , would mean job losses for 9,364 employees.
The company plans to sell off its assets over the coming months , pending court approval, which could include an auction.
American real estate kingpin Richard Baker bought Hudson’s Bay in 2008 from widow of late South Carolina businessman Jerry Zucker for $1.1 billion .
Baker took the company public in 2012 and then turned it private again with a takeover bid that had to be boosted twice to earn shareholder approval in the weeks before Canada was hit with COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns.
