World's largest luxury goods group, owning fashion, leather goods, wines/spirits, perfumes, watches and jewelry brands like Louis Vuitton and Dior.
Earns most of its income from fashion and leather goods, where Louis Vuitton and Dior carry the group, sold mainly through its own stores rather than wholesalers; wines and spirits, perfumes and the Sephora retail chain are smaller.
