“We are very excited to be opening our first boutique in Singapore with the new concept shop design,” said Furla Global Travel Retail Director Gerry Munday.
“The Furla brand is very successful globally; however Asia is a vitally important market for us representing 40% of our total business last year and 15% of our travel retail business. So to have such a strong presence in Changi is fantastic,” she added.
Last year Furla reported a turnover of €212 million, representing an +18% increase on 2011. EBITDA rose +15% to reach €32 million. In the same period, Furla’s travel retail business surged by +93%.
Today Furla is present in 91 countries with five subsidiaries in France, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea and the US. 80% of distribution is retail, with 328 mono-brand stores (156 Furla boutiques and 175 authorised retailers), and 20% via wholesale through 1,290 select multi-brand and department stores.
