LONDON, Jan 19 (Reuters) – British luxury brand Burberry BRBY.L said growth in its full-price sales accelerated in the third-quarter, driven by a strong performance in outerwear and leather goods and a material improvement in Asia and Europe.
Full-price comparable store sales were 26% higher than the same period two years ago, it said on Wednesday, while comparable store sales on the same measure were down 3% due to its planned reduction in markdowns.
