PARIS (Reuters) – French luxury group Kering announced on Thursday it had sold 100% of its Italian The Mall Luxury Outlets to U.S. real estate investor Simon, generating some 350 million euros in net proceeds as part of a wider plan to restructure its real estate portfolio.
Kering’s brands will maintain a presence in the two sites, located near Florence and Sanremo, the company said.
