The new store will occupy 11,500sq m over two storeys and will be located in the D. Place Shopping Centre.
Owned by HLC Commercial Estates, the D. Place Shopping Centre is expected to open in 2021 and the new Galeries Lafayette store will be inaugurated in Spring 2022. The third store is intended to represent a new opportunity to offer French fashion and lifestyle products to the residents of Guiyang.
“One year after opening Galeries Lafayette in Shanghai, and despite the disruptions of the health crisis in recent months, we are very happy to continue the expansion of the Galeries Lafayette brand in China by partnering with HLC Commercial Estates,” commented Philippe Pedone, Head of International Development at Galeries Lafayette.
Meanwhile, Thomas Thompson, the Vice President of HLC Commercial Estates Group commented: “We are delighted to partner with Galeries Lafayette, as it marks a new milestone in this key region and the launch of our project D.Place. In a context where numerous international premier retailers are looking into the Guiyang market, this strategic partnership positions D.Place and Galeries Lafayette at the forefront of a new era for the most promising upcoming city of the Southwest.”
