It looks as thiough the plug has been pulled on Australian outlets .seems they will be under new management if and when they reopen. I guess B&O staff are out of jobs. Not a good look for the brand. Does anyone what is going on?

An email I received from B&O
Dear valued Bang & Olufsen customer, Thank you for your continued support towards Bang & Olufsen. We would like to inform you that Kennedy Luxury Group will no longer hold distribution of Bang & Olufsen. Bang & Olufsen has with immediate effect appointed MJ Invest Pte Ltd as master dealer of the Australian and New Zealand network. Kindly note that with this change, there will be changes in current store locations that may have an impact on you and your existing Bang & Olufsen product. For an updated listing of Bang & Olufsen retailers closest to you, please visit https://www.bang-olufsen.com/en/find-store. In the meantime, should you need any support with your existing products, please also feel free to reach out to our service partners.
I guess what worries me the most is sacked staff. There were several very knowledgeable people working in B&O and I am guessing their expertise is not valued by the company and they will have to get other jobs. This is normally the behaviour of these companies. It will be interesting to see how this pans out.
Exactly. I am in the same boat, worried about the staff.
I Believe there are a few interested parties looking at getting stores up and running in cities where existing stores were. Keep an eye out over the next 2-6 months.
Surely some staff will re appear, they are valuable people! Without them there is no point having a store
Premium Sound in Melbourne are a great destination with the complete range(minus 90's)
