Tiffany & Co. (TIF), the world’s second- largest jewelry retailer, will soon get more revenue from outside the U.S. than from its home market as it opens stores in Europe, the head of the company’s French unit said.

An influx of Chinese and Russian tourists to Europe is helping boost sales in the region, Agnes Cromback, president of Tiffany France, said yesterday in an interview at the jeweler’s store near Place Vendome in Paris.
