Born Clothing closes after 16 years with liquidation sale
Key Points
  • Born Clothing announced its closure on April 22 after 16 years in business.
  • A liquidation sale with up to 70% discounts starts on Thursday, with gift vouchers not accepted.
  • Customers can submit claims for refunds via email, but pre-liquidation returns are not refundable.

The closure impacts customers with specific policies during the liquidation. According to the company's official statement, gift vouchers cannot be accepted because Born Clothing is in provisional liquidation. Items bought during the liquidation sale have a 30-day refund or return policy, provided there is a valid reason and a valid liquidation sales customer receipt. However, no returns of stock bought before the liquidation can be refunded, and no credit note provided by the store before the liquidation can be accepted.

Claims for refunds, returns of stock, or credit notes rank as unsecured claims in the liquidation. To submit a claim, customers should contact bornclothing@bdo.ie. The company expressed gratitude in social media posts, stating, 'After 16 wonderful years in business, it's time for us to say goodbye.' It added, 'We want to sincerely thank each and every one of you for your support over the years - for shopping with us, supporting us, and being part of our journey. It has meant more than we can ever put into words.' The reasons behind the decision to close after 16 years and the fate of the company's assets remain unclear, as does the exact start date of the sale on Thursday.

After 16 wonderful years in business, it's time for us to say goodbye.
