The Grenoble commercial court, which heard Monday the representatives of the 2,000 employees, very worried about the financial situation of Go Sport, as well as the management of the company, will make its decision on Wednesday.
The purpose of this in camera hearing was to verify that the company is not in a situation of cessation of payments in the short term.
“The court considered that the situation was urgent, that it was necessary to act quickly”, explained the lawyer for the central social and economic committee (CSEC) of Go Sport, Me Evelyn Bledniak, after the hearing.
State of cessation of payments?
Like the Camaïeu ready-to-wear chain, placed in liquidation at the end of September, with its 2,100 employees made redundant, its stocks sold off and the brand sold at auction, Go Sport is a subsidiary of the Hermione, People and Brands (HPB) group, owned by Bordeaux investor Michel Ohayon.
The auditors of Go Sport, as well as an independent expert appointed by the elected officials of the CSEC, presented a concluding report on Monday on the state of cessation of payments since the period October-November.
HPB management retaliated at the hearing with another independent report, issuing a statement of non-cessation of payments and promising a return to positive cash in the very near future.
