After a 13% sales increase in 2013 and a 45% jump in 2017, Gucci continues to grow and exceeded all forecasts in the first quarter of 2018, with an organic growth of 49%. In 2017, its sales volume reached 6.2 billion euros. The company's operating profitability, which reached 34.2% in 2017, is expected to perform above the analysts' forecast of 35.4%.
