【ニューヨーク2013年2月21日PRN＝共同JBN】エイボン・プロダクツ（Avon Products, Inc.）とコティ（Coty Inc.）はこのほど、エイボン・ブラジルがブラジルの150万人のエイボン独立系販売員を通じ、特定のコティ・フレグランスの販促・販売を行う商業契約同意書を作成した。

細部の詰めは現在行われているが、同意書によってエイボンはブラジルにおけるエイボンのブローシャーにコティのセレブリティ／ライフスタイル・フレグランスのコレクションを掲載する。

エイボンのブラジルにおける強力な販売網、広範な地域的なカバーと多様なサービスモデルによって、ブラジルの消費者は拡大されたフレグランスのポートフォリオにアクセスが可能になる。コティの幅広いセレブリティ／ライフスタイル・フレグランスのブランド・ボートフォリオには強烈な消費者アピールがあり、エイボンの販売員は顧客にさらに奉仕可能になり、自分たちの消費者ベースを成長させ収入も多くなる。

今回の取り決めは今後数カ月掛けて、最終的な文書にされる予定。

PR55900

NEW YORK, Feb. 21, 2014 /PRN=KYODO JBN/ --

Avon Products, Inc. and Coty Inc. have executed a letter of intent regarding a

commercial arrangement where Avon Brazil would market and sell select Coty

fragrances and its ancillaries through Avon's 1.5 million independent Sales

Representatives in Brazil.

Although the details are still being finalized, the intent is for Avon to carry

a collection of Coty's celebrity and lifestyle fragrances in the Avon Brochure

in Brazil.

Avon's strong direct sales footprint, broad geographic coverage and extensive

service model in Brazil will give Brazilian consumers improved access to an

expanded portfolio of fragrances. The broad portfolio of Coty's celebrity and

lifestyle brands has strong consumer appeal, allowing Avon Representatives to

better serve their customers, grow their consumer base and increase their

earnings.

The arrangement is subject to final documentation, which the companies plan to

complete over the next few months.

Certain statements made in this joint statement, including the plan to complete
