Well, duh! Lol. It isn't surprising Louis Vuitton was named the most powerful luxury brand. Mostly because of their ability to feauture themselves in an array of markets. The list was complied by Millward Brown Optimor and its director Pierre Dupreelle stated Louis was named number one because of its heritage as a travel brand. Jet-setters unite.
Louis was up 2% this past year with a revenue of nearly $20 Billion dollars, billion with a 'B'. Sheesh. The top 10 companies that made the list were:
1. Louis Vuitton
2. Hermès
3. Gucci
4. Chanel
5. Hennessy
6. Rolex
7. Moët & Chandon
8. Cartier
9. Fendi
10. Tiffany & Co.
