During the 1990s and 2000s, TJ Hughes took over a number of premises formerly occupied by other retailers including Owen Owen (Kidderminster and Wolverhampton), Allders (Ipswich), C&A (Glasgow, Romford and Hull), House of Fraser (Sheffield and Eastbourne) and various Co-operative Group stores (Warrington, Bradford, Doncaster and Crawley). From 2009, expansion picked up again with the addition of a further seven stores by early 2011 On 27 June 2011, TJ Hughes Limited announced that it intended to go into administration, putting 4, 000 jobs at risk. TJ Hughes officially entered administration on Thursday 30 June 2011, with Ernst & Young appointed as administrators. Ernst & Young announced on 20 August that the remainder of the 51 unsold TJ Hughes stores would close their doors by 31 August 2011. Closed stores included Belfast, Birkenhead, Bolton, Bootle, Boscombe, Bradford, Bristol, Burnley, Chester & others Since emerging from administration in 2011, TJ Hughes stores have opened or reopened. The company placed one of its subsidiaries in administration during early 2020, leading to the closure of a small number of stores including those in Sheffield and Chesterfield In December 2005, TJ Hughes launched an online store through eBay, with eBay claiming that the retailer was the first in the United Kingdom to sell its main products through the auction site During 2007, the company unveiled its largest advertising campaign to date. This featured celebrities’ family members, with recruits to the campaign including Carol Vorderman’s mother, Jonathan Ross’s mother and Robbie Williams’ father
