INTERNATIONAL EXPANSION
International expansion began in 2007 when Abercrombie & Fitch opened its first international Flagship store in London. The reception was extraordinary and marked the beginning of a very successful expansion strategy for the A&F family of brands. Flagship stores in cities across Europe and Asia are must-see attractions and true showcases for each brand. The brands will continue to expand around the world in the coming years. With all of these new opportunities, there has never been a better time to be an A&F associate!
