The family that owns Chanel is on track to receive at least $21 billion in payouts spanning the past decade. The distributions come as the company maintains sales growth even as some other luxury-goods makers report declining revenue.
The $21 billion figure covers cash returned to owners through the ten-year period ending in the most recent fiscal year. No breakdown of annual amounts or specific uses of the funds was provided.
Chanel has continued to report higher sales while several rival brands have posted slower growth or outright declines. The company has not disclosed whether the payouts will affect future investment or expansion plans.
