On August 26, 2017, Model Reorg Acquisition, LLC, and eighteen of its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “Model Reorg” or “Debtors”), filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (No. 17-11794).
The Debtors, which primarily operate under the brand “Perfumania”, comprise the largest national specialty retailer and distributor of fragrances and beauty products. According to a press reslease issued by Perfumania Holdings, Inc., Model Reorg “has initiated a recapitalization to be facilitated through a pre-packaged Plan of Reorganization (“the Plan”) to reduce its retail store count to better align with current consumer shopping patterns, increase investments in its e-commerce business, and become a privately-held Company.” A link to the press release can be found here.
The case has been assigned to the Honorable Christopher S. Sontchi. The Debtors are represented by the law firm of Skadden Arps Slate Meagher & Flom LLP. The First Day hearing is noticed to take place today, at 2:00 p.m.
