If the supermarkets don't kill the smaller shops one way, there is another. I had no idea Tesco's were supplying the likes of londis.

Sorry for the job losses but Ted Baker sounds like a load of balls "Founder Ray Kelvin, who named the company after a self-styled alter ego, an "intrepid aviator, an all-round sportsman and the consort of princesses and Hollywood beauties" Ted Baker: London is actually Ray Kelvin: Glasgow.

My local shop has had "happy shopper", "londis" and currently "costcutter" branding. Same family has run it for years though. I think they just switch franchises now and again. I suspect small shops couldn't get stock cheap enough to survive without joining one of these franchises.That suggests that it has changed ownership. As CS says, the symbol only really dictates signage and selected stock.
I used to work at a VG and we carried both VG and Happy Shopper lines. No idea how that worked and it didn’t strike me as interesting enough at the time to ask.

Superdry is an essential service. It's not like that Adidas shite. It's good gear.We have enough clothes shops, and need to buy less clothes anyway. We can survive this one. Fucker for the employees but it’s not an essential service like Wilko was .
Like Ted Baker, I can't say that Superdry would be the first place I would think of for clothing. Isn't the the way for many fashion brands;Superdry looking iffy.
