Company News
The Chinese brand said the partnership would allow it to expand in new categories and geographies, while the French group intends to glean consumer and manufacturing insights.
Kering reported first-quarter revenue of €3.568 billion, stable on a comparable basis but down 6% as reported. CEO Luca de Meo said the results mark "an important first step" in the company's recovery, with nearly all brands delivering growth during the quarter. Gucci remains the group's top priority, with a comprehensive turnaround underway focusing on client experience, distribution and product offerings. New collections are rolling out progressively throughout the year. Directly operated retail sales, including e-commerce, declined 2% on a comparable basis, whilst wholesale revenue rose 6%, driven by strong eyewear performance. Kering completed major transactions in beauty, jewellery and real estate during the quarter, strengthening its balance sheet. The company will present its strategic roadmap, "ReconKering", at a Capital Markets Day on 16 April in Florence.

Kering has finalised a transaction agreement with Al-Mirqab Group regarding its property at Via Monte Napoleone 8 in Milan. The iconic 18th-century building, situated at a prominent corner of Milan's Quadrilatero della Moda luxury district, is one of the largest properties on the street. Kering has contributed the asset to a newly incorporated company, held 80% by Al-Mirqab Group and 20% by Kering. The luxury group received €729 million at closing, with an additional €432 million to be paid in five years. The investment follows similar real estate partnerships in Paris and New York last year, forming part of Kering's selective property strategy to secure key locations for its houses whilst enhancing financial flexibility. Kering generated €14.7 billion in revenue in 2025.
Kering has completed the first phase of acquiring a 20% stake in Franco Raselli Group, one of Europe's largest independent luxury jewellery manufacturers, for €115 million. The agreement, announced in December, includes a path to full acquisition by 2032. The transaction supports Kering's strategy to accelerate development of Kering Jewelry, a new division designed to structure and drive growth in the jewellery business. The division will unite maisons Boucheron, Pomellato, Dodo and Qeelin whilst strengthening control over the value chain. Jean-Marc Duplaix has been appointed to lead the division with immediate effect. Founded in 1969 in Valenza, Italy's goldsmithing district, Franco Raselli Group operates across six countries with over 500 employees, producing more than 300,000 pieces and setting over 4 million stones annually.
