  • Robert Lewis Ropa Wikipedia
    Robert lewis ropa wikipedia Continue Ripley buys Robert Lewis and Barbados brands from El guila mi rcoles, June 04, 2008 Constance Hola Chamy Econom from Negocios Online, El Mercurio Tradicional company associated with Family Link to focus on representation and distribution brands. If the survey was done, maybe many Chileans would think that their Robert Lewis or BB2 jeans are aliens. But no. Famous brands present in major major stores are owned by the Chilean company Textil El guila. Until this week. Because he likes it to close the sale of her two star brands. Negotiations began more than six months ago when Ripley was approaching Textil El guila. The multi-store, controlled by the Calder n family, is seeking to strengthen its position in denim brands, given the onslaught of competitors. Falabella has Americano and Paris, with Foster. And while Ripley has his own brands, he misses the weight of BB2 in the women's middleweight segment. For high-rise stores it is good business to add brands to your portfolio. They get differentiation and stamp their labels on products imported from Asia at a low price, increasing their income. Guila, for its part, imported most of the jeans for the brand. For the same reason, a productive reduction plan has begun, given the intention of its owners - the Link family - to refocus their investments and stay in retail, but as distributors. To do this, aim to focus on the views you already have, in addition to adding new ones. Today they have an introduction to the Argentine children's clothing brand Mimo and Co., in addition to Hugo Boss.

With airline budgets on programming in the hundreds of thousands of dollars bracket, delivering relevant, up-to-date and entertaining content is not only crucial in the pursuit of great passenger experience, but financially prudent that it is achieved appropriately. It’s here where the role of content service providers is so central. Gaining insight, not only into passenger tastes, but also into the legalities of licensing and performance rights for example, ensures that an airline’s curated library of audio/video content is fit for purpose. It’s the difference between a box office blockbuster (Avatar) and a box office flop (The 09 13th Warrior).

  • ?Les Ventes De Musique Chutent Au Québec
    VEILLE INDUSTRIELLE ?Les ventes de musique chutent au Québec Diffusé le mercredi 29 avril 2015 Les ventes numériques plafonnent, les ventes physiques poursuivent leur déclin, mais la part québécoise augmente partout. Les ventes numériques ont subi en 2014 une première baisse annuelle selon les résultats dévoilés dans le dernier bulletin Optique culture de l’Observatoire de la culture et des communications du Québec (OCCQ). Cette baisse est de 4 % pour les albums numériques et de 13 % pour les pistes numériques. Dans son dernier bulletin, l’OCCQ relève également que ces baisses, combinées à la baisse de 4 % des ventes des supports physiques, ont fait plafonner la part des produits numériques dans les ventes totales de musique au Québec, qui se maintient à 35 % en termes d’unités vendues. De ces ventes, 22 % sont attribuables aux albums numériques et 13 % aux pistes numériques. La part du numérique dans les ventes totales au Québec se situe en deçà de celle observée aux États-Unis (56 %) et dans l’ensemble des autres provinces canadiennes (58,4 %). Pour expliquer cette baisse des ventes numériques, l’OCCQ émet l’hypothèse que les grands consommateurs de musique numérique auraient abandonné ce mode de consommation au profit d’un abonnement à des services de streaming. L’OCCQ remarque également que la part des artistes québécois a augmenté en 2014 par rapport à 2013, tant pour les ventes sur supports physiques que pour celles sur supports numériques. Ainsi la part des albums d’artistes québécois représente 48,8 % des ventes sur support physique (44,6 % en 2013), 31,1 % des ventes d’albums numériques (26,4 % en 2013) et 8,5 % des ventes de pistes numériques (6,1 % en 2013).
