Despite speculation that the luxury market would be hurt by the global downturn, LVMH has revealed another year of growth. However, although the breadth of its business by sectors and markets is helping to protect it from recessionary pressures, it is not completely insulated, and is applying strict financial disciplines in order to weather the economic storm.

Despite a weak like-for-like performance, LVMH reported marginal growth in a tough economic climate for the first quarter of 2009. While LVMH is in a stronger position to weather the storm than some rival luxury players due to its strong brands and extensive geographical spread, sales are likely to decline further in the year ahead as the economic downturn shows little signs of improving.

Mothercare is in talks to buy Chelsea Stores, owner of the Early Learning Centre, for GBP85 million. Mothercare and the Early Learning Centre are a near perfect match in terms of customer base and Mothercare's focus on out-of-town and multi-channel expansion will accommodate an expanded product offer, which in turn will add value to its retail proposition.

Mothercare's international operations are growing strongly, but its core domestic market is far more challenging. Tough competition and slow market growth has forced some strategic changes for Mothercare, including smaller stores and a major refurbishment program, which are helping it to defend its business in difficult conditions.

Mothercare, a retailer of baby and maternity goods, has posted a mixed set of results, with impressive international and internet growth, but a dip in sales from its core format due to the re-structuring of its UK store estate. However, overall the company looks to be one of the market's safer bets as conditions deteriorate for UK retailers.

Mothercare has managed a strong performance, despite challenging domestic market conditions, with total group sales for the six months to October 13, 2007 up 23.8%.

JD Sports will widen its customer base with its new sports performance store format. JJB's market share is up for grabs, but the move may step on the toes of Sports Direct, meaning pricing, location, and a standout offering are major considerations.
