LVMH is the parent company of the luxury brand Louis Vuitton.
LVMH, formally Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton, is a French luxury-goods group formed in 1987 through the merger of Moët et Chandon, Hennessy, and Louis Vuitton. Its portfolio spans wines and spirits, fashion and leather goods, perfumes and cosmetics, watches and jewelry, and selective retailing.
Louis Vuitton began in 1854 when its founder opened a trunk-making workshop in Paris. The brand later became known for travel goods, monogram canvas, leather products, fashion, and accessories.
Louis Vuitton is not the same corporate entity as LVMH. It is one of LVMH's best-known maisons, while LVMH is the larger group that owns or controls numerous luxury brands, including Dior, Fendi, Bulgari, and Tiffany & Co.
