THE WHY? André Hoffmann, Vice-Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of L’Occitane, comments, “We delivered a decent holiday season, which enabled us to maintain our growth momentum and relative outperformance in the premium beauty market in China and other key markets. It was also pleasing to see Elemis return to growth in light of our ongoing premiumization strategy to support its long-term profitability.
“We will continue to build on the accelerating growth of Sol de Janeiro as we steadily expand its product and category range, and the scale and reach of its distribution. We will also further build on the healthy growth of other brands, including our recently acquired luxury home fragrance brand, Dr. Vranjes Firenze, to round out our portfolio.”
