(Sharecast News) - N Brown Group revealed on Monday that non-executive director Joshua Alliance had snapped up 3.36m ordinary shares in the FTSE 250-listed clothing retailer.
Alliance, who joined N Brown in 2014, purchased the shares on Friday at an average price of 64.65p each, for a total of £2.17m.

Back in January, N Brown said it was suffering stock delays due to a shortage of shipping containers as the home shopping fashion group reported a revenue drop in the third quarter.

Group revenue for the 18 weeks to 2 January fell 8.8%, N Brown said in an update as sales of core brands such as JD Williams and Jacamo fell 1.4% and revenue from other brands such as Premier Man and High & Mighty fell 26.1%.

As of 1610 GMT, N Brown shares were up 2.74% at 71.20p.
