Tight deadline
“Even though we have multiple candidates, we are still open for new offers“, Belgian newspaper Gazet van Antwerpen heard from Liesbet Jacobs, curator for the Belgian branch. However, the stores in Antwerp, Bruges and Ghent remain closed for now, as does the Fish & Chips store in Antwerp.
