Bonmarché is on track to be taken private after Philip Day convinced the retailer’s last major investors to sell its stake.
Investment fund Artemis offloaded its 12% stake in the embattled high street fashion chain yesterday to Day’s Dubai-based holding company Spectre.
The sale brings Day’s total stake in Bonmarché to more than 82%, above the 75% needed to take the business private.
