Shanton has 155 employees across 37 stores nationwide. Staff were being paid and stores traded normally while the administrator advertised the business for sale on January 30. Photo / NZME.
The Shanton clothing chain is once again in strife with receivers taking control of the retailer.
Shanton has 65 staff and receiver Andrew Grenfell said the chain's 13 stores were all staying open for the moment.
The women's fashion retailer is owned by a firm called Revolucija, which is run
by Auckland's Juliana Yelavich.
Grenfell was appointed to Revolucija yesterday afternoon and said he was still working out the next steps for the business.
He would not reveal how much the company owes its appointing creditor.
