Whitehall Jewelers Appoints DJM Realty to Dispose of Leases

Melville, N.Y. Whitehall Jewelers Holdings, Inc. has selected DJM Realty, a Gordon Bros. Group Co., to manage the national disposition of its remaining retail store leases in the United States.

Whitehall Jewelers, which recently filed for Chapter 11, is currently liquidating its inventory and running going-out-of-business sales that are expected to last throughout the holiday season. The engagement of DJM Realty, which is subject to bankruptcy court approval, anticipates an auction to be conducted on these properties in late October.
