All 134 Homebase shops in danger as excessive road model heads for administration – see full listing

All 141 stores belonging to major high street DIY brand Homebase are under threat. Bosses at the company have apparently sounded at administrators, The Times has claimed, just six years after Hilco Capital bought it for £1 in 2018.

They have now sought to bring in insolvency specialists Teneo, after posting a huge £84.2million lost in the year to January 1, 2023. Managing director Damian McGloughlin said in August that trading was “behind where we planned to be” and that an “active sale process” was underway. However, that has seemingly now turned to an administration process, with owners of The Range said to be interested in buying at least 70 of the stores.
