Einzelhandel: So soll Mäc Geiz saniert werden
Der Plan für die Neuaufstellung des Discounters steht: Rund 60 Standorte sollen schließen. Nun müssen die Gläubiger noch zustimmen und Schulden erlassen.
Insolvent discount retailer Mäc Geiz plans to rescue its operations by closing 60 of its former 180 stores and securing the majority of its remaining locations. The company confirmed that 123 sites will remain open, while 850 jobs may be retained. The exact number of employees who will lose their positions remains undisclosed. In the spring, the chain employed slightly over 1,200 people.
By December, creditors are set to vote on Mäc Geiz's insolvency plan before Halle (Saale) district court. The plan aims to rehabilitate the company and establish it on a financially stable footing. Rüdiger Grommes, Mäc Geiz's managing director, expressed confidence in the business model and the company's continued commitment to serving customers at multiple locations.
Moving forward, the discount retailer intends to differentiate itself through new products and expanded product categories.
