Can I ask my SA if they know anyone at the Hermès I’m traveling to (another country)?

Is it ok to ask my SA or SA’s I’m friendly with and have purchased from in the past, if they know anyone at the Hermès in Rome?
(None of them are in Italy, so there’s no competion, per se).
I know an SA at the Cartier in Florence, but I’m not sure if she’ll be much help. I met an H SA in Florence once right before she left to go work with wines. She emailed me, but I never followed up.
Your chances of having a great experience somewhere are usually higher when you know someone.
Is it wrong to ask an H or other European SA’s I know from other stores if they know anyone in Rome?
I’ll be there for a very special occasion, so it wouldn’t hurt to know someone :D
Should I ask the Hotel concierge?
Thank you!
 
I think it depends on what kind of relationship you have with your SA. My SA kindly referred me to other SA in another city (without me asking) because I was after a certain item, was traveling and could not make it to the boutique where my SA was based in.
