These are the Ted Baker outlets at risk in the North East and Yorkshire as the chain has called in administrators.
Owners of high street chain Ted Baker have moved to push its British operations into administration today (Tuesday, March 19), putting hundreds of jobs at risk.
The move is expected to result in store closures and job losses across the country.
These are the Ted Baker stores and concessions, that are at risk in the North East and Yorkshire.
- Binns Concession, Darlington
- John Lewis Concession, Newcastle
- Fenwick Concession, Newcastle
- Ted Baker Outlet, York
This comes 18 months after Ted Baker was purchased in a £211m deal by Authentic Brands Group (ABG) and delisted on the London stock market.
Authentic owns brands including Reebok, Hunter and Juicy Couture.
There are 86 Ted Baker stores in the UK that are at risk however, reports suggested the chain would continue to trade during the insolvency process.

Ted Baker started out as a menswear brand in Glasgow in 1988 and has since grown to have shops in the UK and US, as well as many concessions in department stores, such as John Lewis.
The plan to appoint administrators appears to have come after a long-running theme of instability at the firm.
The announcement comes after The Body Shop fell into administration last month (Tuesday, February 13), following Wilko and Paperchase who filed for administration last year.
