Inditex closed its over 500 stores in Russia in March following Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24 and subsequent Western sanctions

The Kremlin considers the United Arab Emirates and a number of other Gulf and Asian nations as friendly countries whose companies are encouraged to do business in Russia.

The terms of the deal, which were not disclosed, will allow a “substantial number” of jobs to be preserved, Inditex said in a statement, as the transaction includes the transfer of most store lease contracts.
