Bodycare is set to revive some of its brick-and-mortar stores later this month.
It comes after all its branches were forced to shut last September after the retailer unable to secure a buyer.
However, in October, Bodycare announced it would be returning after being acquired out of administration by a group of investors.
These new sites will have a “Bodycare Studio” format, which will focus on promoting new products with demonstration zones, feature screens, and live broadcast studios.
