Sales at Ralph Lauren’s Irish outlet hit €210k a week

A Ralph Lauren firm that operates a factory outlet store in Kildare Village posted revenues of over €210,000 a week.

New figures lodged by the Irish arm of the US luxury brand show that the firm increased its revenues by 15% to €10.96m in the 53 weeks to early April last year.

America’s new first lady, Melania Trump raised the profile of the global brand even further when she wore a Ralph Lauren outfit for last Friday’s inauguration of president Donald Trump.
