Scalpers

Scalpers is a chain of men's fashion stores founded in Seville, Spain, in 2007. In 2018, Scalpers reported €42 million in sales, with 132 stores and other points of sale and 314 employees. In the same year it reported that 8.5% of its sales was via e-commerce. The chain was founded by the 20th Duke of Feria and his friends, and became known for "elegant" suits and ties as well as making slippers fashionable among what Spanish publishers referred to as the "jet set". Scalpers operates owned shops as well as what it calls "corners" (mini-shops within department stores El Corte Inglés, Falabella and El Palacio de Hierro) in Spain, Andorra, Chile, Ecuador, the UAE, France, Mexico, and Portugal. At first the brand only manufactured and sold men's clothing, accessories and shoes, but in 2013 it launched its children's collection, in 2018 its women's collection and in 2019 a capsule collection for girls. In 2017, Scalpers began expanding internationally and today has a presence in Europe, Latin America and the Middle East. In all this expansion strategy, the company has diversified, not only within the men's fashion itself, but with a line for women and children, and now has "all the meat on the spit" with the online store: "To do this, we have developed new platforms, we have incorporated new equipment and we are working with the major world marketplaces in distribution", says Vázquez, Currently, the range of products includes suits, sportswear, sustainable collections and collaborations with other brands. In 2009 it launched its online store and is currently operating in seven different markets.
