Diesel to Open 30 Stores

May 12, 2010

Diesel will open 30 stores in Russia by 2014 after the Italian clothing designer closed local outlets last year because of the credit crunch, said Alla Fentisova, brand manager for Diesel at local franchisee Li-Lu. Kommersant reported.

The Alexander McQueen and Stella McCartney fashion houses that are part of PPR’s Gucci Group are in talks with Russia’s Bosco di Ciliegi about opening boutiques in Moscow after closing them in the beginning of 2009, Bosco chairman Mikhail Kusnirovich said, the newspaper reported.
