Richemont Q1 sales more than double helped by jewellery, Americas
ZURICH, July 16 (Reuters) - Cartier maker Richemont said constant currency sales more than doubled in the three months to June 30, helped by a strong performance in the Americas, particularly for its jewellery brands.
Sales grew to 4.397 billion euros ($5.19 billion) in the first quarter, the world's second-biggest luxury goods group said in a statement on Friday.
They were also 22% higher at constant currency than in the same quarter in 2019, before COVID-19 hit. ($1 = 0.8467 euros) (Reporting by Silke Koltrowitz Editing by Riham Alkousaa)
