Very little I suspect.
More like because customers are not buying and not having cleaning.

BDO sold the 51 stores and the Allied Carpets brand to a new firm, Allied Carpets Retail Limited, set up by Allied chief executive Clive Hutchings.

I wonder if the poor old suppliers are going to get paid?  ::)
