The story
Head Entertainment was formed on 2 February 2009 by Simon Douglas, former managing director of Zavvi, Mark Noonan, former director of trading of Zavvi, and their business partner Les Whitfield.
On 18 February 2009, the day in which the final set of Zavvi store closures was announced, administrators Ernst & Young sold five Zavvi stores and their remaining stock to Head Entertainment. An additional two stores were purchased by Head Entertainment on 20 February 2009.
Closure
In December 2009, Head Entertainment started a closing down sale in all stores. In March 2010, it closed its final store at The Galleries in Bristol. The Bristol store would reopen as a Head Records store; despite the similarity of the name, Head Records is a separate entity.
