Compagnie Financičre Richemont SA Company Profile
Compagnie Financičre Richemont sells the stuff of suave. The company markets Cartier jewelry, Piaget and Baume & Mercier watches, Alfred Dunhill leather goods, and Montblanc pens. Richemont, the world's second-largest luxury goods company, behind French rival LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton, also owns jeweler Van Cleef & Arpels. Richemont sold its Rothmans International unit (Rothmans, Dunhill, Peter Stuyvesant, and Winfield tobacco products) to British American Tobacco (BAT). In return it owns about a quarter of Remgro Group, formerly Rembrandt Group, in BAT. Richemont is controlled by the Rupert family, which also controls Remgro Group.
