This massive cosmetics company now closes in the US as it ceases operations following global financial troubles, sources report.

The Body Shop announced that all of its locations in the United States had shut down as the US wing of the company had ceased operations.

March 1 marked the last day of The Body Shop’s operations in the US, according to a company press release.

This retailer had over 60 locations across the country in December 2023, according to ScrapeHero.

The shock closures were announced with the news that The Body Shop Canada had entered a restructuring process

Its Canadian wing shared that this branch of the company had filed a Notice of Intention to Make a Proposal with the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act.

All of the country’s 105 stores have currently remained open but 33 are set to shut.

These 33 stores are undergoing liquidation sales and the Canadian website is no longer accepting online sales.

The restructuring process also means that the retailer has stopped accepting gift cards, will not sell new gift cards, or provide refunds, according to CBC News.

Locations of these closing stores include branches in Toronto, Ottawa, and Calgary.

The Body Shop was acquired by AURELIUS GROUP in December 2023 and Alvarez & Marsal Canada Inc. was appointed as the Proposal Trustee.

This comes as The Body Shop plunged into financial trouble in its home country, the United Kingdom, reports The-Sun.

The company collapsed into administration on February 13 and administrators deemed the brand’s current portfolio “no longer viable” after “years of unprofitability,” according to The Sun.

Dozens of UK stores were immediately shut and more locations are expected to go.

Around 270 head office jobs in the UK will be cut but The Body Shop did not reveal how many jobs had been lost in North America.
