Investing.com -- Luxury group Kering (EPA:PRTP) has announced its acquisition of Italian firm Lenti, as part of its strategy to further develop its eyewear business.

The deal, announced on Tuesday, was for an undisclosed sum and is seen as a move by Kering to establish in-house capabilities for the creation of Made in Italy sun lenses.

This acquisition comes a few months after Kering’s eyewear division entered into agreements with two other Italian eyewear manufacturers.

The luxury group agreed to purchase Visard and also become a shareholder in Mistral.

These moves indicate Kering’s commitment to bolstering its eyewear division and its focus on Italian craftsmanship.
