Capri, which is currently operating less than 15% of the 455 retail stores in America, is expecting to open majority by early July. The company closed all Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors stores in the region in mid-March.

In EMEA region, the company opened almost 60% of the 318 retail stores.

While in Japan, South Korea and other parts of Southeast Asia, the company opened nearly 70% of the 210 stores in these regions.

The company’s 288 stores in Greater China are all open.

Last month, Capri decided to furlough around 7,000 North American retail store employees as stores are expected to be closed until 1 June due to the outbreak.
