“We are pleased with the continued growth of revenues and profitability in the second quarter, despite the enduring impact of the pandemic in China. All other geographies have shown positive performances. We made excellent progress on our strategic priorities and will accelerate our investment in the second half of the year, as planned, to build strength in platforms and regions to support our growth agenda, whilst remaining mindful of the more volatile and challenging macroeconomic backdrop. Our recently announced partnership with Farfetch provides us with a strong platform of technical capabilities and target audience to fuel our digital growth ambition,” Marco Gobbetti, chief executive officer and general manager of Salvatore Ferragamo S.p.A, said.
