Executive's CEO Peter Allport said that the company is 'actively considering' other properties in the French capital, particularly in the 7th, 8th and 16th arrondissements. 'We have visited literally hundreds of prospective sites in Paris but our expansion policy depends on us identifying the finest properties in some of the most prestigious residential and commercial districts. In London we select only the most striking grade I and II listed historic buildings in the finest areas, and we are applying that approach to Paris also'.
