Brantano goes into administration with thousands of jobs at riskFootwear retailer Brantano has collapsed into administration, putting more than a thousand jobs at risk.
The group, owned by private equity firm Alteri, has struggled following the Brexit-induced collapse in the value of the pound as well as experiencing difficult trading conditions.
Administrator PwC said redundancies would be "inevitable".
Brantano operates 73 stores and 64 concessions across Britain, employing 1,086 staff.
Among them are those at Central Six Retail Park in Coventry and Hatton Village in Warwick.
There are no other Brantano outlets in Coventry or Warwickshire.
PwC will continue to trade the business while "assessing the trading strategy and any interest in parts of the business over the coming days and weeks".
It has been reported Shoe Zone and Edinburgh Woollen Mill, the retail group run by the billionaire Philip Day, have expressed an interest in parts of the business.
Staff will be paid their arrears of wages and salaries, and will continue to be paid for their work while the business is in administration, the accountancy giant added.
