Chau ARMANI!!

The luxury brand has decided to leave the country and they're currently having a huge sale of up to 80% off on some things. Emporio Armani announced that they are facing too much red tape, which makes it difficult to import and commercialize their products in Argentina.

The current government seeks to increase local production.
