Modest sales decline for Kering

French luxury group Kering has reported a four per cent decline in sales for the past year amid ‘uncertain’ market conditions.

Kering oversees brands such as Boucheron, Pomellato, DoDo, and Qeelin and reported €19.57 billion ($AU32.39 billion) in total sales. Profit for the year declined by 17 per cent.

Sales among jewellery and watch brands declined by nine per cent, achieving revenue of €3.51 billion ($AU5.81 billion).

Despite the declining sales, a statement from CEO François-Henri Pinault was optimistic after strong returns in the fourth quarter.

“In a trying year for the group, we strengthened our organisation and took significant steps to further enhance the visibility and exclusivity of our Houses [brands],” he said.

“In a market environment that remains uncertain in early 2024, our continuing investments in our Houses will put pressure on our results in the short term.”

He added: “Thanks to the experience gained across the group through a decade of outstanding expansion, we are confident in achieving our long-term ambitions.”

Kering’s jewellery and watches division reported an 18 per cent increase in sales in 2022.
