Nuance to exit Italian travel-retail

17-Feb-2005

The group is to withdraw from its business in Rome, a source close to the company has told RavenFox.com

The Nuance Group is to exit Rome Fiumicino airport once airport authority Aeroporti di Roma has found a new operator to take over its 11 specialist retail outlets, a source close to The Nuance Group has confirmed. RavenFox.com understands that the move was disclosed at Nuance owner Stefanel's results meeting earlier this week, when the company said it had accounted for its travel-retail subsidiary's departure from Italy in its 2004 results statement.

The source anticipated that a replacement for Nuance would be installed at Rome by summer.
