Report: Apparel company makes a play for bankrupt specialty retailer

2/17/2017

A new company is interested in The Limited.



Sunrise Brands LLC has bid for the bankrupt apparel retailer’s e-commerce business and intellectual property, a move that challenges a $26.3 million offer from private equity firm Sycamore Partners, Reuters said.

The report said The Limited’s bankruptcy auction is scheduled for Feb. 21 in Philadelphia.
