LVMH proposes new Japan ties in top-level visit
05/05/2022
The meeting represented Mr Arnault’s first official visit with a Japanese government representative.
Notably, LVMH made the following three proposals: when Japanese-made materials are used, the group will disclose this in global product descriptions; cooperation with local suppliers will be strengthened; collaboration with Japanese artists and artisans will be further promoted across the group.
LVMH inaugurated the first Asian edition of its Institut des Métiers d’Excellence vocational training programme in Japan last year.
