DUTCH OPTICIAN MOVES SOUTH

[BIZ: Brussels, January 19]
The Dutch chain of opticians Hans Anders is crossing the border and opening stores in the Walloon country and Northern France. It already has 34 outlets in Flanders. In mid-February it’s opening its first outlet in French-speaking Belgium in Mouscron, close to the French border. This will be followed by Mons, La Louvière, and Waterloo, and in mid-June two stores will be opening in Lille, followed by the French towns of Lens, Tourcoing, and Roubaix.
