據《WWD》報導，Marks & Spencer將在未來幾天啟動重組計劃，未來幾個月內將有數百個職位被裁減，還有數千人受到影響。雖然沒有具體說明裁員的數量，但知情人士指出，該零售商旗下橫跨零售和地產、服裝和家居、食品和國際的部門都在審查成本基礎。該公司還表示，那些確實裁員的部門將在未來幾個月的不同時間點進行裁員，預計總人將達到幾千個職位。

由於3月以來冠狀病毒對零售業的影響，英國Marks & Spencer、Ted Baker和Harvey Nichols這三家零售連鎖店將共同裁員1000多人。商店關閉、社會疏遠措施、延長休假時間以及消費者失去消費的胃口，也摧毀了零售商的頂線和底線。時尚業寒冬似乎還有一段長時間才會過去，但到時整個消費社會可能已是另一個世界。
