The three brands have launched closing down sales and Frasers will close the stores permanently in areas with existing Flannels outlets.

The acquisition of the JD brands follows a string of deals from the group, which snapped up several businesses over the last year, including Amara, ISawItFirst.com, Missguided and Gieves & Hawkes.
