Canadian retailer Hudson's Bay Co. will buy luxury department store rival Neiman Marcus for $2.65 billion US, the company said Thursday.
The deal was announced after months of speculation that HBC would buy the chain, whose website lists 36 U.S. locations selling designer apparel, accessories and housewares. HBC plans to group Neiman Marcus with its other international assets, including Saks Fifth Avenue and Bergdorf Goodman, into a new entity called Saks Global. Those labels will continue to operate under their existing names."We're thrilled to take this step in bringing together these iconic luxury names," said Richard Baker, HBC's chief executive, in a press release.
HBC has spent recent years working to revamp its operations after closing its home decor chain Home Outfitters in 2019, the same year it sold department store chain Lord & Taylor to fashion rental subscription company Le Tote Inc.
