Operating

The group was founded in 2014 by Signa Holding and was also owned by Beny Steinmetz for a short period. In 2015 Central Group acquired a stake in the company.
The construction of a new department store titled Lamarr was announced in 2022 to be built in Vienna.
In 2023, Signa Holding filed for bankruptcy and in mid-2024 Central Group purchased 100% of the company.
Following the cancellation of Lamarr, Central Group purchased the under-construction Düsseldorf Carsch-Haus store in 2025, saving the project.
