L’Occitane International has recently welcomed Yves Blouin as the new general manager, taking over from Sylvain Desjonquères. Blouin, who spent over two decades at Chanel, brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the cosmetics company, with a strong focus on the Asian markets. Given that L’Occitane International derives a significant portion of its revenue from Asia, Blouin’s experience in this region will be instrumental in overcoming the current economic hurdles.
In the first half of the current financial year, L’Occitane International reported a 15.2% decline in revenue, amounting to €616.6 million. This drop has largely been attributed to the challenges posed by the ongoing global health crisis. Nevertheless, the appointment of Yves Blouin signals a new era for the cosmetics brand as they strive to navigate a rapidly evolving market landscape and spur growth in a tough economic climate.
