Richemont to Sell E-Commerce Business YNAP to Mytheresa

By Andrea Figueras

 

Cartier owner Richemont said it has agreed to sell its e-commerce business Yoox Net-A-Porter to luxury online platform Mytheresa in exchange for a 33% stake in the combined business.

The news comes after the Swiss luxury group in December said that it wouldn't complete a planned transaction with Farfetch involving YNAP.

"Mytheresa is ideally placed to build on YNAP's assets to further delight customers and brand partners alike across the world by harnessing both companies' respective strengths," Richemont Chairman Johann Rupert said.
