Mango, alongside the Coin project, invests 66 million in France: 45 openings

Mango continues at full speed: in addition to Italy, the Spanish retailer is focusing on neighbouring France, where it is already one of the largest fast-fashion companies.

The chain, which has only recently signed with Coin an agreement to open 22 shops (averaging between 400 and 1.000 sq m) in the same number of stores belonging to the Veneto-based group, is launching an investment of 66 million euros to develop 45 new sites in France by 2028.

France is the first overseas market

The company expects 15 openings per year, with the creation of 15 new jobs each.

The expansion is targeting large cities, as well as medium-sized and small urban centres, which currently account for more than 80% of the network. And, thanks to the business plan, 10 sites in areas not yet covered will be opened.

Mango has operated in France since 1994, therefore for longer than in Italy, where it arrived in 2001.

For this reason too, the local network is more than twice the size of Italy’s, exceeding 250 stores, spread across all regions and in more than 170 municipalities. As always, this is complemented by a strong online presence, both through its own e-commerce operation and via third-party platforms.

Not only that: France is Mango’s leading overseas market among the 120 markets in which it operates, and is second only to its native Spain. It is therefore a key area.

Mango’s upgrades in Italy and France

At the end of the 2000, the brand reached an important milestone in France by opening some of its most central shops. In Paris, it opened stores on Boulevard Haussmann (1.100 sq m), in the La Défense district, at Lyon Place de la République and at Rivetoile in Strasbourg, a mixed-use complex (retail and housing) whose commercial section comprises 38.000 sq m of gross lettable area and 90 retail units.

In 2010, Mango further expanded its presence in France by focusing on secondary cities and, in 2022, strengthened its position by launching 12.500 sq m of sales space.

It is worth remembering that, in 2025, Mango closed its best-ever financial year, recording record EBITDA and profits, as well as revenue of 3,7 billion euros, up 13% on 2024, and opening 260 new locations worldwide.

And this year, here in Italy, just recently the Spanish brand completely refurbished the shop at Il Centro in Arese (April), opened in Palermo, city centre, in Venice, Nave de Vero (1 June) and in Verona, Via Mazzini, on 19 June. The year will therefore end well above the 120 stores reached at the end of 2025.
