Le 20 Heures summarizes the news of Friday February 17 in pictures. The San Marina stores lower the curtain. Apples from Poland sell for 60 cents a kilo, which irritates fruit growers. And on the Ile de Ré, holidaymakers take advantage of the winter.

End clap for San Marina. Born in 1981, the shoe brand lowers the curtain, weakened by competition from the Internet. For a salesperson, “the web impoverishes the physical”. 163 stores are affected by the closure, and more than 600 jobs are threatened. In stores, an apple sows discord between producers and brands. In a supermarket, 2 kg of Polish apples sell for 3 euros. “The desire is clearly to increase margins” for Daniel Sauvaitre, president of the association of apple producers. For Carrefour, it would be the isolated initiative of a store, judged “regrettable”.

Meanwhile, on the Ile de Ré, vacationers relax during a bike ride. The tranquility of the low season allows you to enjoy the winter. “We have the joy of enjoying the sun and the cycle paths, we imagine that summer should not be the same celebrations”smiles a tourist.
