Dancing Leopard Clothing - Administration

Dancing Leopard Clothing, a Walsall-based online fashion brand, entered administration on 18 December.

The business, founded by Jade Hildreth and Jack Burrows in 2009, was inspired by the “vibrant fabric markets in India”. It grew to operate from a warehouse in Walsall with 27 staff and recently opened its first flagship store in Ibiza Town.

Unfortunately, the company appears to have been impacted by the issues facing the wider retail sector, including rising costs and lower consumer confidence. In addition, co-founder Jack Burrows left the business as of March 31, 2024.

Andrew Fender and Sandra Fender of Sanderlings were appointed joint administrators.

Santander UK has a registered charge against the company.
