 PROFILE
Dylex may be hitting the Canadian bi-way. Financially troubled Dylex operates some 300 stores under the BiWay (discount apparel, general merchandise) and Fairweather (women's fashions) names. About 50% of sales come from BiWay (about 260 stores in Ontario and Atlantic Canada). Dylex shuttered its Labels chain, then sold its Thrifty and Braemer chains (170 stores) and its National Logistics Services division (warehouse and distribution) to American Eagle Outfitters. Money trouble is not new to Dylex; it emerged from bankruptcy in 1995 and later sold its interests in Harry Rosen and Club Monaco stores. It was acquired by US-based Hardof Wolf Group in May 2001.
