The administrators have announced they have made 249 redundancies in the business' head office, however, there are still 266 staff remaining.
Laverty said: "It is with regret we have made 249 redundancies at Peacocks' head office in Cardiff, which follow a commercial review of the staffing levels of the business. No stores have been closed and will continue to operate as normal whilst we actively search for a buyer for the business."
There are 563 stores and 48 concessions in the group. Previously administrators said there were 611 stores and 49 concessions.
A division within Peacock, Bonmarché which has about 3,800 staff, is not in administration and continues to trade.
