The company is also looking to launch it’s other brand, Bath & Body Works, into the European markets and is said be actively looking for a ‘best in continent’ franchise partner with which to join forces. The news follows an unsuccessful bid by Limited Brands to launch Bath & Body Works into the UK in the 1990s, with the venture eventually being abandoned.

However, there has been more good news for the company of late, with its third-quarter profits rising above its own forecast, rising to $14.9m compared to $4.2m last year.
