It was in mid-April that the clothing chain went bankrupt.

Earlier this week, GP reported that MQ could acquire a new owner, despite a massive sale having begun.

The company has been in financial trouble for a long time, and on April 16 it filed for bankruptcy granted by the district court. In the application to the District Court, the company writes: “The company lacks the ability to pay its clear and past due debts. This incapacity is not only temporary and, therefore, the company is insolvent. “
