Abstract

The article highlights the luxury brand Hermès, and how 20% of its stock was brought by Bernard Arnault's LVMH in 2010. Theirry Hermès founded the brand in 1837 as a workshop that produced harnesses and saddles in Paris, France. Family members ran the company after Thierry, who was succeeded by his son Charles-Emile and Robert Dumas. In 2006, Patrick Thomas became the first chief executive of Hermès International who is not a family member.
