(Reuters) – Men’s apparel brand Brooks Brothers filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on Wednesday as stores were shut and business took a hit during government-mandated lockdowns to curb the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The company, that has been around for about 200 years, joins J.C. Penney, Neiman Marcus, J.Crew among others that have filed for bankruptcy in the past few months.
