Hermes Pferred Jean&Nbsp; Paul&Nbsp; Gaultier&Nbsp; All Shares.

Not long ago, French luxury goods group

Puig, a family business, makes perfume for Prada (Prada). Its brands include Carolina Herrera Carolina (Herrera), Lena Liz (Nina Ricci) and Parker Labona (Paco Rabanne), which will control Gore's company by acquiring part of the designer's brand share.

Until last year, Jean Paul Gore had been the designer of Hermes dress. He said in his last luxury brand fashion show that he had finished a "love story" with Hermes and was sorry for its end.

Gorte was appointed by late Jean Luis Dumas, former chief executive of Hermes, and is widely regarded as the chief designer of pforming Hermes from a small French scarf maker to the world's leading luxury brand.

Gore had left Hermes shortly after he died last year.

Hermes began investing in the designer fashion house in 1999.

As part of the long-term agreement with Gore, Puig will repay the company's 14 million euro debt. The pfer of shares and debt repayment will bring a total return of 30 million euros for Hermes.

In addition, Puig bought a 15% stake from Gorte, founder and designer Jean Paul Gorte, and eventually Puig owns Gore's 60% stake. Gore maintains the remaining 40% stake.

Puig will gain control of Gorte's main assets, mainly perfume business, with an estimated value of 100 million to 200 million euros.

But it takes time to get Gore's perfume.

Gorte's perfume includes its popular Le Male men's perfume, produced by Beaute Prestige, a perfume manufacturer in Paris, Shiseido Co. Ltd., which pays designer's remuneration every year. The contract is renewed in 2001 and extended to 2016.

Gorte, a famous French designer, enjoys a sacred status in the world fashion industry. However, his company has already lacked operating capital because of its royalty, clothing series and high fashion series.

This French designer is eagerly raising funds to develop his fashion brand and selling his products in emerging markets such as Asia.

According to industry analysts, the sale of Gore Czech Republic is more for the purpose of earning considerable income. Before being attacked by LVMH group's "invasion" and controlled by Bernard Arnott more than 20% of Hermes, Hermes also began to redeploy itself.
