    Riot Art & Craft liquidation and worker-dismissal controversy

    Riot Art & Craft entered creditors' voluntary liquidation during the COVID-19 period, closed its 56 physical stores and dismissed approximately 300 workers by text message. The reported sale of its website to a related company also prompted concerns about possible director or practitioner misconduct. The episode predates Toys R Us's 2024 acquisition of Riot, and the supplied reference does not establish a final finding of wrongdoing.
