It was an extensiveprocess because we had to find the perfect location, then theappropriate lines for the market. We chose Emporio Armani, whichaccounts for 60% of the Armani group's portfolio because it coversa very wide range of clientele as far as age and social positionare concerned," Daniel Rosner, general manager of Alsa Boutiques,told ZF. Alsa Boutiques holds the franchises for MaxMara,Ermenegildo Zegna, Pal Zileri, Marella and Coccinelle.
