Apranga
Apranga

The retail turnover (including VAT) of the Apranga Group amounted to EUR 27.9 million in November 2022 and has increased by 28.7% in comparison to November 2021.

Last year in October the Republic of Latvia introduced restrictions related to spreading coronavirus: the operation of stores in shopping malls on weekends were banned in Latvia from 14 October 2021, and later all Group’s stores in Latvia were temporarily closed from 21 October 2021 until 15 November. All Group’s stores have been reopened in Latvia from 15 November 2021, however, stores operating in shopping malls were not allowed to work on weekends, unless they have separate entrance from outside. These restrictions had a significant impact on the generated turnover in Latvia in October-November 2021.

In November 2022, the retail turnover of the Group in Lithuania increased by 13.8%, in Latvia surged by 106.0% and in Estonia grew by 20.9% year-to-year.
