This is 50,000 sq. m of retail space and 1000 jobs, and the share of sales is 10% of the total volume of the company's business.

Mr. Yilmaz Yilmaz noted that Russian women follow fashion very closely, and the brand managed to successfully adapt to the existing cultural trends and consumer demand trends. "For 15 years of work in the Russian market, we have achieved great success in analyzing social trends and consumer behavior. We have become available as a local brand and are widely known, especially in the south of the country. We are preparing two collections, depending on the time and special needs, and offer them to our Russian customers at affordable prices," he said.
