French 'yellow vest' protests curb Printemps sales by 25-30 percent

PARIS (Reuters) - French upmarket department store Printemps said it had suffered a 25-30 percent slump in sales over the last four weeks as a result of the "yellow vest" anti-government protests.

"There has been a colossal loss in sales and they won't be recouped," said Pierre Pelarrey, who runs Printemps' flagship store in central Paris.
