2. Carphone Warehouse chain
In March, technology retail giant Dixons Carphone wielded the axe on its Carphone Warehouse chain, closing all of its standalone UK stores including in Leeds. Outlets inside Currys PC World, in Albion Street, White Rose and Guiseley, remain open.
3. Debenhams
Boohoo purchased the Debenhams brand and website of department store chain for £55 million but it did not take on the company’s 118 stores - meaning around 12,000 jobs were likely to be lost. There is also a Debenhams store in Briggate.
4. Dorothy Perkins
Burton's sister brand Dorothy Perkins will also see the closure of all its Leeds stores, following the sale of the brand to Boohoo.
5. Monsoon
The Monsoon store in the White Rose has closed but the Accessorise store will remain open, according to the company's website.
6. Oasis
More than 1,800 jobs were lost after sister fashion chains Oasis and Warehouse said they would not reopen any of their stores again last year. Boohoo has bought the brands which are now sold online-only.
