Full list of Body Shop closures revealed - and which will remain open

February 29, 2024

The Body Shop has published the full list of stores that are to close - and which will stay open - as it announced 489 jobs will go over next four to six weeks.

While 116 shops will continue trading, 75 will shut over the next four to six weeks - in addition to the seven immediate closures confirmed two weeks ago.

The nearly 500 roles will be made redundant due to the shop closures, The Body Shops administrators said, and affected staff will receive support with claims to the government's redundancy payments service.

The Body Shop had announced it entered administration and, as a result, was closing nearly half of its stores in the UK and cutting 40% of roles at its London headquarters.

Only The Body Shop UK is impacted by the administration as global franchises trade as normal.

As part of the restructuring, there will be a "renewed focus" on products, online sales channels and wholesale, the administrators added.

"The UK business continues to trade in administration, and we remain fully focused on exploring all options to take the business forward."
