Paris: An insurance issue? BHV du Marais must close its doors at 4 p.m. this Monday
A week after filing for judicial reorganization, the Paris department store cites a temporary "administrative regularisation" on Monday. BHV Parly 2 is also affected.
An insurance problem led to the closure of BHV Marais on Monday at 4 p.m., while BHV Parly 2, in Yvelines, was also due to close in the evening. In a message to employees sent to AFP, the president of the brand, Karl-Stéphane Cottendin, explained this decision taken as a precaution for the teams and customers: “one of our insurance policies could not be transferred as part of the current legal recovery”. Placed in receivership for a week, the Parisian department store is invoking temporary “administrative regularization”.
Monday before 6 p.m., an AFP journalist noticed that its doors were closed and its lights off. No one was visible inside and no poster informed customers. A new contract being signed A new insurance contract should take over on Tuesday for BHV stores, according to their president, Karl-Stéphane Cottendin.
“We are finalizing the new contract, which is being signed and will take over tomorrow,” he said in a press release sent to employees that same day. The precise reopening time must be communicated on Tuesday. “This is an administrative regularization, seen with the procedural bodies, which does not call into question the continuation of our activity,” further clarified the president of the brand.
