As the year’s end approaches, Luxe.CO Intelligence is proud to release an exclusive report “Louis Vuitton’s 2022”, affiliated with a series of annual reports on luxury brands.
As the flagship brand of LVMH, the world’s number one luxury group and probably the largest in terms of sales, Louis Vuitton has long led the growth and contributed the most profits to the fashion and leather goods sector of LVMH. In 2021, the sector, which also includes brands such as Dior, Fendi, Celine, Loewe, and Givenchy, once again achieved a new all-time best business performance: sales of 30,896 million euros, rising 46% and 42% compared to 2020 and 2019 (pre-epidemic) respectively.
Although the name Louis Vuitton is often seen on websites and social media platforms, our perception of the brand is often partial.
