Distinct high quality merchandise:
Gucci Group prides itself on offering ready-to-wear
and accessories of the highest quality. This entails
a combination of the best quality raw materials; a proven
production process; attention to detail; the best craftmanship;
a unique and evolving style as defined by a strong creative
team; a clearly defined brand image, as well as the
right positioning in the luxury goods market place.
Controlled distribution
As a global luxury goods company, management of the
distribution is critical in positioning the brand as
an exclusive and wanted entity. Gucci operates a network
of directly operated stores throughout the world. This
means the management are able to control the brand image
as well as monitor supply and demand instantly. Whilst
Gucci Group products can be found in
selected wholesale retailers, the venues are carefully
chosen to offer the desired exposure to a
desired market, while again keeping image control and
costs to a minimum.
Solid Solid execution

entrepreneurial culture and understanding of the luxury
goods industry combined with the ability and willingness

implement change, particularly in the face of adversity
or opportunity.
Gucci continues
to expand its global presence by opening a number of
new stores worldwide.
In September
2000, Gucci reopened its newly renovated Fifth Avenue
Store - the largest Gucci Flagship store in the world.
