A Paisley-based company which has operated in the town for more than 60 years is to sell off all 168 of its UK stores, leading to almost 2,000 job losses.
M&Co entered administration for the second time in three years in December.
It had been hoped that a buyer would come forward to purchase the flailing company, but it has now been confirmed that while an offer has been made for the brand, no such offer for stores and staff was forthcoming.
