The Body Shop Canada will close nearly a third of its stores and end online sales as it seeks creditor protection, the Canadian subsidiary of the U.K. beauty and cosmetics shop announced.
Earlier this month, the Body Shop International was acquired by a private equity firm and put into administration. At that time, the company told CBC News that its Canadian stores would not be impacted by the change.
CBC News has reached out to a spokesperson for more information.
The Body Shop Canada’s 105 stores across the country are still open for business, the company said.
The 33 locations that are closing will immediately start liquidation sales.
Here is a list of those stores:
