Such stores will close "in the coming weeks" while resulting in around another 100 jobs being slashed. Among the stores being closed include the Ted Baker store at the Trafford Centre.
Benji Dymant, joint administrator said: “Ted Baker is an iconic British brand with strong partners around the world.
"These store closures, whilst with a regrettable impact on valued team members, will improve the performance of the business, as Authentic continues to progress discussions with potential UK and European operating partners for the Ted Baker brand to bring the business back to health. We would like to thank Ted Baker team members and partners for their ongoing efforts and support at this difficult time."
