LVMH was created in 1987 by the merger of the Louis Vuitton fashion house with Moët Hennessy, a company formed from the 1971 merger of the Moët & Chandon champagne house and the Hennessy cognac house. It controls some 60 subsidiaries, each managing a small number of prestige brands.

Present in a multitude of luxury goods sectors worldwide, including leather goods. This activity accounted for around 40% of its sales in 2018, due in large part to its Louis Vuitton brand, and to a lesser extent to the Dior brand, which the group owns.
