There was growth of 20% in Japan, of 7% in the rest of Asia, of 10% in the Americas and of 7% in Europe.
“Growth of leathergoods and saddlery, at 14%, with revenues of more than €1 billion, was remarkable,” Hermès said on announcing the results. “Its development was supported by the ramp-up of the production capacities of two new sites that opened in Charente and in Isère in June, as well as by the construction project for two new production units in Franche-Comté [all three are sites in France].”
