Esprit provided the update on its Europe businesses as several subsidiaries opened insolvency proceedings.
Esprit said it is looking to exit loss-making operations in Europe and will embark on a new business model which includes optimising the company’s structure, as well as setting up a more flexible and scalable European distribution centre, potentially in the Netherlands.
This news came as Esprit warned of a HK$1.9bn net loss for 2023 due to a tough European market.
While its German subsidiary remains in discussions over a potential acquisition, it is likely the Swiss and Belgian subsidiaries will be closed, Esprit revealed.
Esprit added it is actively seeking financing through various channels with a view to improving the financial position of the group and enlarging the capital base of the company.

While certain investors have expressed their interest in the company with a view to grow its European business, Esprit said any funds raised will be mainly used to pay suppliers to secure a sustainable supply chain and avoid disruption in the wholesale business; and rebuild the group’s new operational infrastructure system.
