As France continues to fight the spread of coronavirus, the group will pivot workshops in the cities of Anger and Paris to be able to produce masks, a Kering spokeswoman told Bloomberg.
Kering, which is also the parent company to Gucci, Alexander McQueen, and Bottega Veneta, has promised to kick off production as soon as the relevant authorities have approved the manufacturing process and materials.
In the meantime, the Paris-based company also plans to provide the French health service with three million surgical masks, which the group will purchase and import from China.
The French health ministry announced Sunday that the epidemic was “continuing to spread and to worsen.” There were 16,018 confirmed coronavirus cases and 674 deaths in the country nearly a week after it imposed a lockdown for citizens.”
