COS to enter Mexico
COS is to enter Mexico next summer by opening a flagship store in the country’s capital, Mexico City.
The 486-metre shop will be situated in Antara in the Polanco area of the city.
Katie Reeves, managing director North America COS, said: “Opening a flagship store in Mexico is an incredibly exciting step for COS. We are always looking for new markets to introduce people to our brand and are confident Antara is the perfect destination for the launch. I’m looking forward to seeing how customers respond to the brand and engage with our collection.”
The store will be the third to roll out the fashion retailer’s new sustainable store concept which is designed to be maintained, repaired and repurposed as part of its commitment to a circular built environment.
Fittings making use of sustainable materials will include bamboo wardrobes, recycled acrylic vitrine display cases and a rail system made with recycled aluminium. In addition, each fashion collection will be built with sustainability in mind, with each piece designed to last beyond the season.
Part of H&M Group, COS operates a 264-store portfolio across 48 markets.
