上海/巴黎–2014年11月12日 –锦江国际集团和美国喜达屋资本集团今日联合公布，双方已就喜达屋资本出售卢浮集团和全资子公司卢浮酒店集团100%股权签署相关协议。出售金额尚未公布。交易建议必须经过卢浮酒店集团的工人中央委员会信息咨询程序。

　　作为中国最大的综合性旅游集团之一，锦江国际集团以酒店投资管理、旅游和客运物流为主业，在11个国家拥有和经营1700多家1-5星酒店(25万间客房)以及多家国际旅行社。卢浮酒店集团是欧洲第二大的酒店集团，在40多个国家拥有1100多家酒店(超过9万间客房)。

　　2011年11月，卢浮酒店集团和锦江国际集团建立了业务合作关系，在中法两国主要城市推出锦江和卢浮的复合品牌酒店，从而加速卢浮酒店集团在中国的扩张，推动中法之间的酒店和旅游业发展。前期良好的合作也为此次交易奠定了坚实的基础。

　　喜达屋将透过其关联方Star SDL Investment Co.来完成此项建议交易，预计交易将在2015年第一季度完成。卢浮酒店集团的工人中央委员会将立即就此项交易协议展开信息咨询程序。

　　喜达屋资本集团首席执行官Barry Sternlicht表示：“作为卢浮酒店集团与锦江国际集团结合，这项协议让卢浮酒店集团旗下所有酒店品牌继续拥有广阔的发展前景，同时也为卢浮酒店集团与喜达屋的成功携手画上圆满的句号。我们与锦江共同期待，以上每一个品牌可以进一步增强实力，把握中国市场乃至亚洲市场的强劲增长潜力。”

　　锦江国际集团董事长俞敏亮表示：“作为战略投资者，我们很高兴在过去多年密切合作的基础上与喜达屋资本集团就此交易计划达成共识。锦江和卢浮在品牌、地域和客源等方面互补性强。我们期待着和卢浮酒店集团旗下的管理团队、员工及各方携手合作，为双方未来的全球发展和布局创造更大的空间。”
