Kering’s upward trajectory shows no signs of slowing down, especially with the continued expansion of its luxury brands, such as Balenciaga. Under the leadership of CEO Cédric Charbit, Balenciaga is on track to exceed €1 billion in revenue this year. This remarkable growth can be attributed to Charbit’s keen eye for talent, as he has successfully harnessed the creative genius of Demna Gvasalia, catapulting Balenciaga to new heights.
In recognition of his outstanding achievements, Kering has announced Charbit’s appointment to the executive committee, effective July 1. This prestigious position will see him working alongside industry heavyweights like François-Henri Pinault and Marco Bizzarri, further solidifying his important role within the group.
Charbit’s extensive background in the luxury goods sector, which includes stints at renowned brands like Saint Laurent and Balenciaga, has equipped him with the necessary skills and expertise to drive Kering’s growth. His strategic contributions have been pivotal in helping the group achieve a revenue of over €13.6 billion in the previous fiscal year.
As a key player in shaping the future of Kering and its portfolio of luxury brands, Charbit’s appointment to the executive committee signifies a new era of expansion and success for the group. With his visionary leadership and track record of success, Charbit is poised to lead Kering to even greater heights in the fiercely competitive fashion industry.
