Mulliez

Mulliez is a French family association known for its significant holdings in various retail businesses. The organization is in the news due to the liquidation of Alinea, a furniture retailer within the Mulliez group. Alinea was placed in receivership in November 2025. The recent news highlights the failure to find a credible buyer, leading the Marseille economic court to declare Alinea's liquidation. This decision results in the loss of approximately 1,200 jobs. The event underscores the challenges faced by traditional brick-and-mortar retailers in a competitive market and reflects on the broader economic impact within the Mulliez ecosystem.
