Prada’s Profits Were Even Better Than Forecast – 10/2/10


Prada has joined the ranks of the upbeat luxury brands as they told Reuters that they had a better-than-expected operating profit in the last financial year, which ended in January.

The result was due to “a rise of more than 14 percent in retail network sales,” a Prada spokesperson said.

This is extremely positive news for Prada, especially given they are still a private company without the backing of luxury giants like Richemont and LVMH. Although, we must point out that rumours do still persist of a Prada-Richemont alliance… (see the MO Down for 7 January for details).
