UK luxury leather company Connolly has been forced to pull out of its 50% owned US operation, Connolly North America, after liquidation proceedings began on Friday (November 30). The company is also to cut 100 workers at the centre of its UK operations in Ashford, Kent. The reduction comes only two years after the company moved from Wimbledon with the loss of a further 100 jobs.
