Coronavirus louis vuitton owner to start making hand sanitiser
You're referring to Bernard Arnault, the CEO of LVMH (Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton), the parent company of Louis Vuitton!
Yes, it's true! In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, LVMH has announced that it will start producing hand sanitizer to help meet the high demand for this essential product.
On March 17, 2020, LVMH announced that it would convert its perfume and cosmetics production facilities in France to produce hand sanitizer. The company has partnered with the French government and the French Red Cross to produce the hand sanitizer, which will be distributed to hospitals, healthcare professionals, and other organizations in need.
This move is a significant departure from LVMH's usual business of producing luxury goods, such as perfumes, cosmetics, and fashion items. However, it's a testament to the company's commitment to supporting the community and helping to combat the pandemic.
It's worth noting that LVMH is not the only luxury goods company to pivot its production to help combat the pandemic. Other companies, such as Gucci and Prada, have also announced plans to produce face masks and other personal protective equipment (PPE) to help meet the demand.
