LVMH recently presented a project to create the Maison des Métiers d’Excellence (House of Distinguished Professions) in Paris. It will be a showcase of LVMH Group houses’ expertise and a training space for artisans and the general public. Report by Leatherbiz.
According to Le Figaro, the main building will have model rooms for advanced classes and courses in leather goods, tailoring or jewellery on the first two floors, while the third floor will be dedicated to theoretical and practical training for the group’s artisans. The last level will be the library.
In a press release, Chantal Gimberly, the Director of Human Resources and Synergies at LVMH, stated that their Distinguished Careers Program has made LVMH one of the largest knowledge transfer ecosystems in the world. To match this ambition, they needed a physical location.
The Maison des Métiers d’Excellence is set to open at the end of 2025 and will be located at 8 Bayard Street.
We bring leather, material and fashion businesses together: an opportunity to meet and greet face to face. We bring them from all parts of the world so that they can find fresh partners, discover new customers or suppliers and keep ahead of industry developments.
We organise a number of trade exhibitions which focus on fashion and lifestyle: sectors that are constantly in flux, so visitors and exhibitors alike need to be constantly aware both of the changes around them and those forecast for coming seasons.
