Springfield, the Group urban clothing brand, opens, this weekend, its first store in Havana at Galerías Paseo shopping center. This opening reinforces the presence of Grupo Cortefiel on the island, after Women’secret’s premiere in May. The brand specialist in feminine apparel opened the first store in the capital, at the Manzana Kempinsky hotel located in the historic center.

The new Springfield store is in the shopping center located on Havana’s boardwalk, El Malecón, and in the tourist center of the capital. This strategic location features the brand’s summer collection. The Spanish textile company is scheduled to open next year a new Women’secret store in Havana.

For Grupo Cortefiel, the entry into Cuba and Costa Rica with its main brands means the commitment to a market with great growth potential.

In Costa Rica the Spanish multinational is opening two more stores, one of Women’secret and another of Springfield in Cartago’s Metropolis shopping center. These two new points of sale are added to those already present in San José on Avenida Escazú and Lincoln Plaza, in addition to their already established in Curridabat. In total nine stores spread four of Women’secret, four of Springfield and one of Cortefiel.

The openings confirm Grupo Cortefiel’s international expansion policy and specifically in Latin America, where it is currently present in 16 markets, most predominantly in Mexico, Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Venezuela and Bolivia.
