AMES UK to cease operations from March 31st 2026

Following on from Griffon Corporations announcement last week that "as result of these actions, beginning with Griffon’s second quarter 2026 reporting, AMES UK will be reported as discontinued operations" GTN Xtra has now learned they will be ceasing operations in the UK as from March 31st 2026.

 

GTN Xtra has asked both AMES UK and Griffon Corporation for comment.

 

Rumours started to abound yesterday after staff were given notice of a consultation period for potential redundancy.

 

Today several retailers and buying groups learned of the planned closure of the business.
