The store is a place where not only tourists from all over the world come, but the top designers and stylists of big fashion houses.

One of the oldest and most famous shops in Paris, the Ultramod haberdashery, has announced its closure after nearly 200 years of existence. The store, which sells vintage buttons, ribbons and other tailoring supplies, was unable to renew its lease. Le Figaro wrote this on Wednesday, October 16.

Store owner Anne-Christine Morin said she did not want to do so, but was unable to influence the decision of the building’s owner, the Carac group, which did not renew the lease due to an undisclosed real estate transaction.

“It’s a real heartbreak,” she said.

Anne-Christine Morin added that some of Ultramod’s products will be transferred to another store across the street, which also sells sewing supplies.

“However, in a new, smaller place, it is impossible to maintain the entire range, in particular, goods for finishing furniture and curtains,” he explained.

According to the publication, the Deputy Mayor of Paris for Trade and Crafts, Nicolas Bonnet-Aulage, expressed the desire to make this case a precedent that will help protect similar culturally significant businesses in the future.

The British company Unilever has completely withdrawn from the Russian market.

European aerospace corporation Airbus will cut up to 2,500 jobs in its defense and space division.
