Primary Evidence

"In March, the acquisition of 33.3% of Tanneur & Cie, which manufactures leather goods for major brands and also under its own label, is formalized, as is the acquisition of the Italian company Pucci, led by the founder Emilio Pucci's daughter. Marquise Laudomia Pucci di Barsento will continue to be in charge of creation, LVMH promises. In May, Bernard Arnault announces the acquisition of Omas, an Italian company that manufactures high-end pens. "The equivalent of Montblanc," explains Bernard Arnault... whose Italian leaning continues to grow!"

"Listing the number of brands that have ended up in French hands becomes a painful count for those who care about the entrepreneurial future of our country: Gucci, Brioni, Pomellato, and Bottega Veneta are owned by Kering di François Pinault, the archrival of Arnault, who recently also targeted Valentino, acquiring 30% with the option to buy the rest of the shares in the coming years. Bulgari, Loro Piana, Fendi, Acqua di Parma, Emilio Pucci are the Italian brands in the LVMH portfolio, which recently also bought a stake in the holding company of Remo Ruffini that controls Moncler."
