Indigo Books & Music Inc. lays off staff as part of its strategic plan to return to profitability

 

Indigo Books & Music Inc. has laid off an unspecified number of staff as part of the retailer’s ongoing efforts to streamline its operations. The cuts stem from the company’s strategic plan meant to return the business to profitability. 

The company has seen several quarters of losses and a flurry of executive and board changes over the last year. Most recently, the company reported a net loss of $22.4 million in its second quarter, a period when founder and chief executive Heather Reisman retired and turned the business over to Peter Ruis. Ruis left the company abruptly in September, making way for Reisman to return.
