The flagship store offers a comprehensive range of United Colors of Benetton collections for adults, Sisley clothes and accessories. Special attention is dedicated to men with a department housing both Benetton and Sisley and includes suits and footwear.

Like the others, also this megastore will highlight the image of Benetton, not only as a worldwide clothing company, but as promoter of an open, international lifestyle.

This restoration follows that of the store of Sarajevo pioneeringly opened by Benetton during the bombardments of the Balkan war.These interventions mirror the image of a country which is once again a link between different cultures, religions, usages and habits, aspects that have always characterized Benetton’s philosophy.
