New fears for jobs at Peacocks

Thousands of staff at collapsed retailer Peacocks are facing further uncertainty after it was reported that only one company remains in the race to salvage the firm.

Peacocks, which has 563 stores and 48 concessions, and Cardiff-based parent company the Peacock Group collapsed under a debt mountain last month in the biggest retail failure since Woolworths, placing 7,500 jobs in jeopardy.
