Bershka opens its first store as sales rise in Brazil’s high-end malls; see the data

Although Class B and C assets also posted consistent growth during the period, the pace was more moderate, widening the gap between segments and highlighting a concentration of value in premium assets. 

As a result, Inditex Group reports that Bershka is already planning expansion. Still in 2026, the company intends to open its second store, this time in Rio de Janeiro. 

Founded by Amancio Ortega, Inditex Group is one of the world’s largest fashion conglomerates, built on a business model driven by speed, global scale, and operational integration. Owner of brands such as Zara, Bershka, and Massimo Dutti, the Spanish group transformed the fast fashion concept by shortening the time between design and product availability in stores. 

According to SiiLA Market Analytics data, the group occupies 27,800 sqm in industrial properties under the Zara Brasil brand, in addition to maintaining an office in São Paulo at I-Tower. The company’s physical presence in the country is supported by its strong financial performance: in Brazil, it reported R$894 million in profit before taxes in 2025—the third highest in the Americas, behind only the United States and Mexico, according to the Inditex Group Annual Report 2025. 

Brazil was the only country in the Americas where the company did not see profits decline, reinforcing the rationale behind its planned expansion in the market.
