L’AMY
France: double-digit growth in 2002
L’AMY
France has asserted its position on the French market,
recording a 13% increase in sales in 2002. This performance
comes on the heels of a 10% rise in the previous year.
Growth was
noticeably strong in all brands operated by L’AMY
France (18% increase in volume and value), especially
LACOSTE, NINA RICCI, CHEVIGNON, KIPLING and JEEP.
L'AMY's own brands also posted good results, thanks
to a more aggressive sales strategy which enabled the
L’AMY group to win back market share in the "generalist"
segment.
It was also a fine year for Louis F LAMY, the luxury
eyewear collection of the group.
The key ingredients
to this success are the extensively updated and re-positioned
collections, focusing on the core target of each brand,
reinforced consumer communication, a stable and highly
motivated sales team in touch with customers and one
of the best service performances on the market - and
so far this year, the momentum appears to be sustained.
In
2003, more than ever, L’AMY group is confident
in the pertinence of its offering and in its close relations
and partnership with its optician customers.
