Notability does require verifiability. Businesses are not inherently notable. Various claims in this article are not reflected in its cited references, such as the claims that it: "Was immensely popular through the early 2000s, and was comparable to Wet Seal, or Aeropostale," or "Had about 300 stores across the United States," or that it was "Famous for its large shiny blue tiled facade" (which seems like trivial information anyway). I could not verify them in other sources. Most articles that mention this store discuss its filing for bankruptcy. The number of articles that mention its downfall does not make up for the apparent dearth of quality content. Trivial coverage does not make this any more notable. One of these sources (and others) are local sources, which, again, do not make for notability. There just is no substantial coverage of this company that warrants keeping this article unless there is another Body Central that I am entirely unaware of. Apologies if I have done something wrong.
