The company, which also owns Yours Clothing, Long Tall Sally, claimed the move perfectly aligns with its mission to cater to a diverse range of customers.
AK Retail Holding founder Andrew Killingsworth said: “We are absolutely thrilled to acquire Evans and build upon this legacy, taking the brand to even greater heights with fresh opportunities and enhanced offerings to Evans customers.”
The move comes as follows AK Retail Holding’s successful acquisition of M&Co, which is now not only relaunched its website but to reopen its doors on the high street later.
AK Retail Holdings acquired the high street retailer in February this year for an undisclosed sum.
