Hilco to close 60 Homebase outlets in restructuring
Restructuring company Hilco is reportedly set to close up to 60 Homebase stores having acquired the chain for £1 earlier this year.

The DIY chain is expected to announce a Company Voluntary Agreement (CVA) next week having appointed Alvarez & Marsal to carry out a restructuring exercise.
