Opening Day Of A Shein Store In Paris

An overview of large banners and promotional visuals for Shein includes a giant poster depicting Frederic Merlin, president of the SGM group ''Societe des Grands Magasins''--owner of BHV Marais--alongside Donald Tang, executive president of the Shein group, outside at the Bazar de l'Hotel de Ville (BHV) department store in Paris, France, on November 5, 2025, on the opening day of its first physical store at BHV in Paris. Asian e-commerce giant Shein, a Singapore-based company originally founded in China, on November 4, 2025, pledges to ''cooperate fully'' with French judicial authorities as investigations launch after France's anti-fraud unit reports it is selling childlike sex dolls, and says it is prepared to disclose the names of people who buy them.
