£500,000 worth of clothing retailer’s stock to go under the hammer

£500,000 worth of stock from a Bradford retailer, which recently went into administration, is to be auctioned off online.

Motorbike clothing and accessory stock of Nicholas Noble will be put under the hammer in the first week of February by chartered surveyors, Walker Singleton.

Walker Singleton is auctioning the stocks, alongside the associated business assets, on behalf of administrators, XL Business Solutions.  

Howard Eastwood, a director of Walker Singleton, said: “Nobles has been a respected retailer of motorbike related clothing and equipment for over 15 years. The business prided itself on carrying physical stock lines for almost every product, in every size – from leather racing suits, through jackets/trousers to helmets, gloves and boots – all motorbike related.

“The store was brimming with orderly presented areas of clothing; a complete repository of anything and everything a biker might need – aside from the motorbike itself. Nobles were not tied, as many retailers are, to particular brands, they stocked everything they felt a rider might need whether they rode dirt bikes or went continental touring”.

Over 1,000 garments, 1,500 helmets/gloves and 500 pairs of boots are included in the auction, which is will start to close from Monday 4 February.
