From the administrators' statement
The Company was incorporated on 25 March 2019 under the name Byland UK Limited. Its immediate parent is Ying Ling Kam Trading Company Limited (“YLK”), an entity registered in Hong Kong. After acquiring certain of the business and assets of LK Bennett Limited out of administration in 2019, the Company changed its name to LK Bennett Fashion Limited on 3 March 2020. It is a UK-registered luxury ladies fashion retailer.
The Company operates from nine prime leasehold stores located in England and partners with six concessions in the UK, Ireland and Jersey. It serves customers worldwide through the LK Bennett website and third-party webhosts. Additionally, the Company provides a wholesale / franchise offering, primarily in China and the US. As at the date of our appointment, the Company had 145 employees in the UK and Ireland.
It has two 100% subsidiaries, Byland Holland B.V. and Byland France SAS. The shares the Company holds in the two subsidiaries were not acquired by the Purchaser through the Transaction.
