Kathmandu's head office hit by earthquake

Outdoor equipment retailer Kathmandu Holdings said its Christchurch-based head office and three stores in the city have been affected by yesterday's earthquake but the impact on trading overall will not be significant.

The company said the earthquake has damaged its head office and New Zealand distribution centre. All three Christchurch stores are currently closed.

"It is unknown at this stage when both premises can be fully reoccupied, and this is also dependent upon necessary site services being restored," the company said.

The company does not consider the impact of the earthquake on trading in New Zealand to be significant and it will update investors next week.
