We, as the producers and suppliers of apparel in Turkey, declare the following to Arcadia Group, Deloitte LLP and all concerned parties... with the regretful situation faced by Arcadia- we see that our dues and receivables being treated as claims of dubious ground, and our services as non-essential.

To this end, we demand from the Arcadia Group Limited, the Administrators at Deloitte LLP and all relevant persons that our dues to be honored, the obligations towards us are fulfilled and our work is given the appreciation it deserves.
