LVMH is the world's largest luxury goods company, owning more than 75 brands across fashion, jewelry, wine, spirits, cosmetics, and retail. Its most famous names include Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior, Moët & Chandon, Hennessy, Bulgari, and Sephora. It sells to wealthy consumers around the world who pay premium prices for products tied to heritage, craftsmanship, and brand prestige.

The company makes money by selling physical goods — handbags, watches, champagne, perfume — through its own stores, websites, and select retailers, keeping tight control over distribution to protect brand image. LVMH operates globally, with strong sales in Europe, the United States, and Asia, particularly China, and generates roughly €86 billion in annual revenue. Its main competitive advantage is owning irreplaceable heritage brands that take decades to build, but its biggest risk is exposure to Chinese consumer spending, which has slowed recently and accounts for a significant share of luxury demand worldwide.
