Businesses, especially restaurants, are beginning to feel the effects of the downturn in the economy.
Bangkok Thai has announced it will close its doors for good on June 28. However, the popular Thai restaurant plans to launch a Thai home kit which will enable diners to recreate dishes.
We are sad to say will close for good on June 28th, but in the meantime please support us for our beautiful takeaway service. We hope to see you soon. xhttps://my-site-109306-104296.square.site

Meanwhile All Saints could become the next retail casualty as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, as the retailer reportedly plans to launch a CVA (compulsory voluntary arrangement).
According to Sky News, AllSaints is set to demand rent discounts from its landlords across the UK via the CVA that could be launched as early as Tuesday.
Primark meanwhile has enjoyed crowds as people in England flocked to the stores on the first day of non-essential retailers opening.

And Sports Direct experienced similar demand….
By far the largest outdoor queue I have seen in Bolton town centre so far is Sports Direct which stretches all the way round the corner onto Deansgate past the Slaters Menswear entrance #IAmOpen @MENnewsdesk pic.twitter.com/o28ZH4Wbuv
