HUNGARY: Zara To Launch Fashion Store Network
Spain's Zara, part of the Inditex group, plans to launch its retail stores onto the Hungarian market by the end of 2001. Two years ago, Inditex concluded a franchise agreement with holding company Fotex to operate a retail network for Zara garments. The two companies have now agreed to open six shops over the next three years, of which at least one will have a floorspace of 2,000 square metres.
