Farfetch sold to Coupang, investors seek legal action, recovery uncertain

Farfetch sold all business assets through pre-pack administration process.

In recent news, luxury fashion retailer Farfetch has made a surprising announcement regarding the sale of its business and assets. Through a pre-pack administration process, the company has sold all of its business and assets as of January 30, 2024. The sale was facilitated by Coupang Inc., a prominent internet company, through its entity named Surpique.

Initially, Farfetch had agreed to an exclusivity period until April 30, 2024, during which it would explore other potential buyers for its business. However, with this new deal in place, that option is no longer on the table. The sale was the result of a marketing process carried out by JP Morgan on behalf of Farfetch, but unfortunately, no competing offers were received.
