Medicube opened a permanent store at Palacio de Hierro's Satelite branch in Mexico City on October 7, 2026, marking the first permanent location for a Korean beauty brand across the retailer's chain, The Investor reported. The development adds a concrete retail expansion point for the Mexican department-store operator, while a second Medicube location was scheduled for the Coyoacan branch later in October.

Beauty adds a new retail channel

The Satelite store sells skincare products and beauty devices, including PDRN products, collagen masks and the AGE-R Booster Pro X2. The assortment is expected to adapt to local demand, giving Palacio de Hierro another way to test premium beauty purchases in a physical store.

The rollout also connects the retailer with APR, the South Korean company behind Medicube. APR had expanded its Mexican distribution through Sephora, Costco, Sam's Club and Ulta Beauty before adding the Palacio de Hierro location, according to KDF News.

What does the new store add?

The immediate contribution is one permanent store opened on October 7, 2026, with a second location scheduled for the same month. That count matters because the format gives the chain a physical distribution channel for a fast-growing beauty category rather than relying only on its wider department-store assortment.

Valuation gives investors a reference point

As of October 16, 2026, market data for Grupo Palacio de Hierro SAB de CV showed a market capitalization of MXN 16.62 billion and an indicated dividend yield of 4.55 percent. The same source identified the company as a department-store operator listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange under ticker GPH/1 and reported 10,100 employees, according to TradingView.

For investors, the store opening is best read alongside the company's established retail platform. Palacio de Hierro operates department stores, restaurants, boutiques and related credit operations, while its real-estate segment manages shopping properties. The Medicube launch therefore adds a clearly dated brand and store event to a business already spanning merchandise and property operations.

Retail expansion remains the practical test

The next test is whether the second October location converts brand interest into repeat traffic and sales. The October 7 opening provides the dated operating marker, while the 4.55 percent indicated yield and MXN 16.62 billion market value provide the clearest available valuation context for the stock.
