Hospitality group Go To Collection group has appointed voluntary administrators (VA) from PwC New Zealand to restructure the business.

Malcolm Hollis and John Fisk of PwC have been appointed as VAs by the directors of the hospitality group.

“We will work with the team to devise and implement a restructuring plan to ensure the components of the business that are operating well can have a successful future.
