In addition to operating its flagship store, La Rinacente has expanded into other ventures. In 1982, the company opened its first coffee shop, ''Cafe La Rinacente'', in [[Sacard Beach]]. The cafe was originally developed for promotional use involving model [[Kalia Ocaso]] but it soon opened after her agent-husband suggested it to the Batevoleo Estate as a publicity stunt. The cafe proved to be a critical success, generating an average 220,000 daily visitors after the campaign involving Kalia Ocaso was released. Over the years, several other ''Cafe La Rinacente'' locations have opened, each with a unique aesthetic and menu to reflect the location. Today, there are 40 ''Cafe La Rinacente'' locations around the world. In 2009, La Rinacente purchased the online luxury retailer Vescato for $850 million. It now operates as a staff-authenticated luxury consignment marketplace. In 2015, the company partnered with luxury hospitality conglomerate [[Certi Resorts]] on a line of exclusive boutique rental properties, branded as La Rinacente Residences. | In addition to operating its flagship store, La Rinacente has expanded into other ventures.
