Sales at constant currency were up 14.1 percent to 35.9 billion euros in the full year to Jan. 31. even as the company reduced inventory by 7 percent. It also revealed plans to launch itsis also planning a big spend on logistics, with a 900-million-euro plan to add new distribution centers in Europe, mostly Spain and the Netherlands, over the next two years.
Investors took the news of the infrastructure spend in stride “considering the scale of volume growth in recent history, and the expansion plotted in the future,” Grzinic said. That will be another investment of 1.8 billion euros over the next two years on upgrading its stores with a new, cleaner concept and improving its omnichannel integration, so much so that García Maceiras said it was “not possible” to differentiate between growth strategies of online versus in-store sales, and would not expand on how much of those online sales are fulfilled by its physical stores.
The Dutti decision in the U.S. was based “after a good level of online sales through the website,” García Maceiras said. He added that “another commercial format” will soon launch in the U.S., but did not specify which brand would make its way to American shores. Inditex is leaning on the strength of Zara, with “all concepts” modeled after the fast fashion behemoth’s omnichannelintegration strategy.
