英国第二大旅行社接手Thomas Cook门店 据报涉额少於5,000万英镑
英国第二大旅行社、最大独立旅行社海斯旅行社(Hays Travel)宣布,收购上月破产的老牌旅行社同业Thomas Cook旗下563间英国线下门店当中的555家,并未披露涉及金额。据英国《金融时报》引述接近交易消息人士指,该交易在未有举债下完成,涉额料少於5,000万英镑(约6,113.5万美元)。
海斯表示,计划立即重开所有因为公司破产而关门的Thomas Cook店铺,并已雇用Thomas Cook近600名前员工,并指对其余前员工续有空缺提供。海斯料总计可挽救逾2,500个职位。
Thomas Cook上月在未能与债权人及最大股东复星旅文(01992.HK)达成协议後,进入清盘程序,全球数以千计酒店未能收取余款,2.1万名员工面临失业。
主理Thomas Cook清盘程序的毕马威合夥人Jim Tucker指,是次交易属极之正面的结果,为相当数量的Thomas Cook前员工保住职位,并稳住英国零售铺位租务市场。海斯以现租值接手Thomas Cook铺位,亦期望未来按个别铺位情况逐间重新洽商。
