Coughlans Bakery has shut all 32 shops in South London. The family-run chain folded on Tuesday after liquidation. Surging bills and debts made trading unsustainable for this decades-old business. Romesh Ranganathan, the comedian who co-owns it, called the news devastating. Workers now face job losses as the bakeries close immediately. The British Baker said the collapse matches the original empire’s size. A decades-long local name has vanished from the high street. No revival talks are happening at present.
