Some Zavvi jobs saved in HMV deal
Administrators for music, DVD and games retailer Zavvi said more than 200 jobs were secured tonight after a deal with HMV – but the news came after hundreds of the firm’s employees lost their jobs in further store closures.
Ernst & Young (E&Y) tonight confirmed a deal with Zavvi’s high street rival, which will see HMV buy 14 of the firm’s remaining UK and Ireland stores.
