Sheraz Ramzan, CEO of Quiz, stated, “The board took the difficult decision to appoint administrators to Zandra Retail Limited in light of the continuing challenging trading conditions impacting the Group’s performance.” This decision reflects a severe financial strain that has plagued the brand recently.

Founded in Glasgow 33 years ago, Quiz Clothing has struggled to maintain its foothold amid rising debts. Currently, it owes £15.4 million to connected parties and £6.1 million to trade creditors for Orion Retail Limited. Additionally, Zesta Ventures Limited is owed approximately £6 million by the group.

No offers have been received for the company’s business on a going concern basis. Officials anticipate that the administration trading period could last until mid-May 2026. However, uncertainties remain regarding the exact timeline for potential store closures.

A decision regarding the fate of Quiz Clothing’s 40 stores is expected within days as stakeholders await clarity on the company’s future amidst this financial upheaval.
