UK childrenswear chain enters administration again

British childrenswear retailer Adams went into administration for the second time in little more than a year today, casting doubt over 2,000 jobs.

Adams was rescued from collapse last January by JS Childrenswear, but the company is now under the control of administrators MCR.

The retailer, which has more than 120 stores in the UK, also supplies Boots with the Mini Mode own brand range.

Administrators said “all options” were being considered for the business and said staff were “understandably concerned”.
