AllSaints USA

AllSaints USA, a subsidiary of AllSaints, a global contemporary fashion brand headquartered in London, England, had its UK restructuring proceedings recognized in Canada under the CCAA on June 17. The company attributes its financial troubles to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has had a significant impact on the company's immediate liquidity position. In complying with the global COVID-19 restrictions, AllSaints closed most of its international locations by the middle of March, including all six of the company's Canadian stores. As a result of the company's liquidity challenges and financial difficulties, it has not paid rent under its Canadian leases from March to June and owes approximately $526.5 thousand in rent obligations to its Canadian landlords. Without a restructuring of existing liabilities, the company's business will not be sustainable. PwC was appointed information officer. Counsel is Blakes for the company and Cassels for the information officer.
