FF Group secured a €4m loan from Garanti Bank. The project, set for completion in May 2015, will include three retail levels dedicated to brands in FF Group’s distribution network, including Armani Jeans, Converse, Pepe Jeans London, Polo Ralph Lauren and Ted Baker. The building’s office space will be leased.
