The final examination of the safeguard plan for the 26 Galeries Lafayette stores owned by Michel Ohayon was postponed until February 21 by the Bordeaux commercial court. The court will then rule and, if it does not validate the plan, will have to place the stores concerned in receivership.
They employ around 1,000 employees in Agen, Amiens, Angoulême, Bayonne, Beauvais, Belfort, Besançon, Caen, Cannes, Chalon-sur-Saône, Chambéry and Libourne.
