Great American Group has been selected to handle the liquidation of Bakers Footwear Group, Inc., offering discounts for products in 56 of Bakers Footwear Groups’ remaining stores as well as online.

“We are offering significant discounts online and on all store items, so consumers will have the opportunity to purchase quality, name-brand women’s shoes at steep discounts,” said Scott Carpenter, president of Great American Group’s Retail Division.

Bakers locations in Alabama, California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Virginia are part of the sale event.

On Jan. 15, 2013 a bankruptcy judge for the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in St. Louis signed a Chapter 7 order allowing Bakers Footwear Group to conduct going-out-of-business sales at its remaining stores.

Bakers Footwear Group, once a leading national mall-based retailer of shoes for young women, operated 236 Bakers and Wild Pair shoe stores in 37 states before filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy last October due to declining sales. At that time, the company hired GA Keen Realty Advisors, LLC of New York, a division of Great American Group, to market leases for 150 Bakers and Wild Pair shoe store locations in 31 states.

Great American Group is a provider of asset disposition and auction solutions, advisory and valuation services, capital investment, and real estate advisory services for an extensive array of companies.
