Mango boosts UK expansion with Chester debut
Located at the Broughton shopping centre in north-western England, the new store marks Mango's entry into Chester with a space dedicated entirely to womenswear. The boutique adopts the brand's signature New Med design concept, blending Mediterranean warmth with sustainable materials and a fluid architectural layout. Shoppers will find a curated mix of new arrivals and enduring wardrobe staples from Mango's women's collections.
Mango has maintained a steady presence in the UK since 1999, steadily expanding its retail footprint. By the close of 2024, the brand expects to operate over 80 bricks-and-mortar locations nationwide, complementing its online channels and third-party partnerships. The Chester opening forms part of Mango's 4E Strategic Plan (2024–2026), which targets surpassing 100 UK stores by the end of the year.
The brand's expansion ambitions reach far beyond the UK. In recent weeks, Mango has launched five new stores across Italy—in Teramo, Naples, Sicily, and Chieti —further strengthening its presence in key southern European cities. Simultaneously, it continues to grow in the United States, marking a milestone last June with the opening of its 50th location in the country.
Founded in 1984 by Isak Andic, Mango now has a footprint in over 120 markets worldwide, supported by a global network of more than 2,800 stores. In fiscal year 2024, the company reported revenue of €3.339 billion, reflecting a 7.6% year-on-year increase. As part of its current strategic roadmap, Mango aims to achieve €4 billion in annual sales and open 500 new stores globally by the end of 2026.

Ex Real Madrid boss sentenced to one year in prison for tax evasion
A Spanish court has sentenced current Brazil national team and former Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti to one year in prison for tax fraud. The Madrid Provincial Court handed down the sentence on Wednesday for the offence committed in 2014 and fined him just over €386,000 which he must pay to the tax authorities. The court has also acquitted him of similar charges relating to the 2015 tax year, due to a lack of evidence of his residence in Spain during that period. Despite the conviction, Spanish law stipulates that sentences of less than two years for non-violent offences and provided the person possesses no criminal record, serving time in prison is not mandatory. It is therefore likely that Ancelotti will settle his dues and avoid his prison term. The court ruling however establishes that, for a period of three consecutive years, the football coaching icon, whose career has seen him take the helm of top European sides including AC Milan, Bayern Munich, PSG and Chelsea, will not be able to obtain or claim public aid, subsidies, tax benefits or social security incentives in Spain. Ancelotti claims he followed Real Madrid's advice During the trial in April, Ancelotti claimed he has always acted on the legal advice of Real Madrid and its tax consultants, denying that he had any intention of defrauding the tax authorities. He added that he settled the outstanding debt with the tax office in December 2021 and asked that the mitigating factors of damages and procedural delays be taken into account. Carlo Ancelotti was in charge of Real Madrid across two stints, the first between June 2013 and May 2015, and the second from June 2021 until May 2025, when he ended his tenure at the club to take over a new challenge: leading the Brazilian national team to its record extending 6th World Cup title, scheduled to take place in the summer of 2026.

Mango appoints Eva Gallego to lead its women's division
As part of its ongoing leadership reshuffle, Mango has appointed Eva Gallego as global director of its women's category. She will succeed Luis Maseres, who is stepping down after 11 years with the company. Gallego will officially take over in September and report to product director Luis Casacuberta. 'We're pleased to welcome such an experienced and accomplished professional as Eva Gallego to the team,' said Casacuberta in a statement. 'We are confident that under her leadership, the women's line will maintain its strong momentum, strengthening its distinctive value proposition and consolidating its position in the market.' With over two decades of international experience in the fashion industry, Eva Gallego has held senior positions at prominent companies including El Corte Inglés, Tous, Inditex and LVMH. Her career spans product development and strategic transformation across the fashion, luxury, and retail sectors. Most recently, she served as director of accessories, luxury and footwear purchasing at El Corte Inglés. Before that, she led all product divisions at Tous and headed the accessories category at Zara Woman. This appointment is part of Mango's 4E 2024–2026 Strategic Plan, aimed at reinforcing the group's leadership—particularly within the women's segment, which currently generates 70% of total revenue. Mango Woman's goals include strengthening its unique market positioning and driving further growth through innovation, sustainability and global expansion. Luis Maseres, the outgoing head of the division, joined Mango in 2014 and has held various strategic roles across commercial and product functions. He played a key role in shaping the brand's accessories strategy and, over the past four and a half years, led the transformation of the women's category—restructuring teams, sharpening its positioning and expanding its reach in multiple markets. Gallego's appointment follows a leadership shift in June, when Jonathan Andic stepped down as global director of Mango Man to lead his family's asset management companies, which handle business and real estate interests. Mango named Josep Estol as his successor. With a presence in over 120 markets and more than 2,800 points of sale, Mango has established itself as a major player in the global fashion retail industry. The company, established in 1984 by Isak Andic, reported a 7.6% revenue increase in fiscal year 2024, reaching €3.339 billion. As part of its 4E Strategic Plan, Mango aims to achieve €4 billion in revenue and plans to open 500 new stores worldwide by the end of 2026.
