A fashion retailer has announced a clearance sale at all stores, including its site in south Essex, after a shock administration announcement.

Quiz, which has a branch in Lakeside Shopping Centre, West Thurrock, has launched the sale following the recent closure of its online store.

A spokesperson for the company said: "A stock clearance sale will commence immediately across all stores.

"Customers may wish to make purchases whilst stocks are available."



Quiz is to go into administration, closing its online store and starting a stock clearance sale across physical outlets, putting 109 job roles at risk at its Glasgow head office and Lanarkshire warehouse.

The company has clarified that all items purchased on or after February 5, 2026, are "sold as seen" and can only be returned if faulty.

Items bought before that date can be exchanged in-store for replacements or substitutes of equal or lower value.

No cash or card refunds will be given, and gift cards and credit notes are now void.

A message on the retailer’s website reads: "QUIZ is currently offline.

"Our stores will remain open for a period of time.

"We are grateful to everyone that has supported us over the years."

The Lakeside store will remain open "for a period of time" as part of the company’s national clearance effort.
