Oddbins: brief update – deal with Baile expected to be completed today


Lee Manning of Deloitte expects that a deal with Simon Baile will be concluded today. The deal involves some six shops – all in the south east/London area. Apparently there was one outside the south east but it may no longer be included.

Ireland
Manning's colleague works on this, so Lee wasn't able to update me on this. However, it is likely that there will be a deal at some point on one of the shops. Will try to get more information on this.

RPL form
The advice for those having problems contacting Deloitte regarding queries on this form is to keep trying. The person to speak to is Jane Harley and you should have her contact details.
