TORONTO 鈥� Jobs are being cut as Hudson's Bay Co. spins out some of its brands into a new entity called Saks Global.
A Saks Global spokesperson says operational functions from across the businesses are being brought under one leadership team.
The spokesperson did not say how many people would be affected by the layoffs.
The creation of Saks Global was part of H小蓝视频's US$2.65-billion acquisition of American department store chain Neiman Marcus, announced earlier in July.
Under the deal, Toronto-based H小蓝视频 will group Neiman Marcus Group's banners in a new business alongside Saks Fifth Avenue and Saks Off 5th, which it has owned since 2013.
H小蓝视频 has conducted several rounds of layoffs over the past few years as it navigated headwinds in the retail industry.
