伦敦，10月12日 - 英国零售商Frasers进一步将其在奢侈品牌伯伯利的持股提高至7.42%，此前已于9月底购入更多股份，因为迈克·阿什利控制的公司正在扩大其在奢侈品领域的业务。
LONDON, Oct 12 - British retailer Frasers has further increased its stake in luxury brand Burberry to 7.42%, having already bought more shares in the company at the end of September, as the Mike Ashley-controlled company broadens its interests in the luxury sector.
Frasers于9月30日披露其在伯伯利的持股为6.32%，此前为4.16%。体育直营店的所有者以激进收购零售商而闻名，并在8月份以破产管理方式收购了奢侈品百货哈维尼科尔斯，同时也在推进对雨果博斯的收购。
Frasers had on September 30 disclosed a stake of 6.32% in Burberry, up from 4.16% previously. The owner of Sports Direct is known for aggressively buying up retailers, and in August bought luxury department store Harvey Nichols out of administration, as well as pursuing a takeover of Hugo Boss.
伯伯利和Frasers均未就持股增加立即回应置评请求。Frasers上周制定了奢侈品战略，称其看到在欧洲扩大其百货连锁店Flannels以及全球扩展哈维尼科尔斯的机会。
Neither Burberry nor Frasers immediately replied to a request for comment on the increased stake. Frasers last week set out a luxury strategy, saying it sees opportunities to expand its department store chain Flannels in Europe and Harvey Nichols globally.
