After a year marked by administrative restructuring, Luxottica reported an increase in revenues of 6.7% (at constant exchange rates) in 2014 to $7.7 billion euros (CAN$10.75 billion).
With sales of 3.2 billion euros (CAN$4.47 billion), the Wholesale Division achieved a 8.6% increase, particularly due to Ray-Ban’s strong performance. The Retail Division generated a 5.4% increase in sales to 4.5 billion euros (CAN$6.28 billion), which was mostly driven by a 13.5% growth in Sunglass Hut sales.
Emerging markets (+17.6%) yielded the strongest results, followed by the North American market (+5.3%).
Massimo Vian, CEO for Product and Operations, expressed his pride in the 2014 results, adding that the eyewear manufacturer aims to double its revenues over the next 10 years.
