Milan for Hoepli, a crowdfunding campaign ready to reopen the historic bookstore
A civic group presents an offer: 4.5 million the minimum capital estimated to get started
Efforts are underway to reopen the iconic Hoepli bookstore in Milan, which closed in May. A group of promoters, including Vittorio Graziani and Monica Colombera, have submitted an offer and plan to launch a crowdfunding campaign to support the project. The goal is to raise 4.5 million euros to renovate and reopen the store, with a projected break-even point in two years and 19 employees. The liquidator, Laura Limido, is expected to make a decision soon, with another project reportedly submitted by a publishing house.
