Holland & Barrett owner urged to provide cash injection

Concern was stoked by after a bondholder update last month by new Holland & Barrett boss Tony Buffin. Sources said that earnings of £104m at Holland & Barrett in its last financial year did not meet expectations and the retailer’s bonds were reported subsequently to be trading at 50p in the pound.
