A brasileira Seculus, que se dedica à fabricação de relógios e com sede em Manaus, dá um segundo passo para sua entrada na segmento de acessórios de moda, segundo publicou o Valor Econômico em 4 de setembro de 2015, citando ao Presidente da empresa, Alexandre Azevedo. A empresa há dois anos começou sua entrada neste novo segmento com o lançamento de uma linha de bolsas femininas com a marca Mondaine. A empresa agora vai distribuir relógios e semijoias da Calvin Klein, da linha Calvin Klein Jewelery, no Brasil por meio de contrato assinado com a suíça Watch Group (SIX:UHR). A Seculus também fechou um acordo com a austríaca Swarovsky para distribuir com exclusividade semijoias e também relógios da marca em relojoarias e joalherias do Brasil, de acordo com o Presidente da empresa. Sobre a mudança de segmento Azevedo comenta, "A ideia é virarmos uma empresa uma empresa acessórios de moda e não uma empresa de relógios. A gente sabe que ainda é uma empresa de relógios, mas no futuro a gente quer ser uma gestora e distribuidora de acessórios de moda." Ele ainda acrescenta, "A gente já mudou a ideologia. Nossa ideologia hoje já não está mais focada em relógio, mas em acessórios de moda. Começamos com o negócio de bolsa, agora vamos entrar em joias e a gente está estudando outros segmentos ligados a acessórios de moda para podermos expandir". Entre esses novos segmentos poderiam estar o segmentos de óculos, cosméticos, além de carteiras e cintos. E a empresa não descarta uma posição aquisição neste segmentos. |
