Analyst at Citigroup and seasoned commentator on the luxury sector Thomas Chauvet has said that Hermès is on course to take its annual revenues from €13.4 billion in 2023 to more than €20 billion in 2027. By Leatherbiz.
He pointed out in a note that the Louis Vuitton brand, the flagship brand of larger group LVMH, had gone past the €20 billion milestone in 2022. But he said that Hermès could even overtake Louis Vuitton in the years ahead.
His analysis of share-price increases so far this year reveals an average for the luxury sector of 6.8%. The increase at LVMH is ahead of this at 8%, but over the same period Hermès’s share price has gained 20%.
He said that Hermès’s business model was driven by scarcity and that this helped set the group apart.
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.
