Kika/Leiner Insolvency: Last chance for customers before closing branch!

The Kika/Leiner furniture chain is on the abyss! On Wednesday it was officially announced that the branches of the insolvent chain will close at the end of January 2025 at the latest. For many customers, this means who have made down payments and are waiting for reimbursement that they have to register their claims to the court by Friday. According to media reports, up to 20,000 deposit cases are affected. The first creditors' meeting will take place on January 17 at the St. Pölten Regional Court. The nervousness grows because it is unclear how much money the affected customers will receive. Customers and bargain hunters already ensured massive crowds in the shops, which temporarily led to closures of the branches.

The uncertain future also has great concerns for employees because they will lose their jobs. A work foundation was promised, but the implementation remains questionable, especially since many employees are not yet registered with the labor market service. Potential buyers for the locations are also rare, such as Today. reported.
