A NEW business is moving into the former Topshop and Topman building in Worcester City Centre.

Shop windows displaying dresses and winterwear are now seen at the building, which has been closed since 2021.

It is not currently known what business is moving into the building.

In 2021, it was confirmed that ASOS sealed a £265 million takeover of Arcadia, including brands Topshop, Topman, Miss Selfridge and HIIT.

Administrators for Sir Philip Green’s retail group said Asos has paid an additional £65 million for current and pre-ordered stock.

Arcadia collapsed into insolvency at the start of December 2020 after pandemic closures further exacerbated the group’s troubles.

In a desperate year for the UK retail sector, Arcadia Group were the biggest high street casualty of the pandemic, after appointing administrators in December 2020, putting 13,000 jobs at risk.

At the time, the company admitted the forced closure of stores as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic has had a “material impact on trading.”
