Gucci 

(/ˈɡuːtʃi/, GOO-chee; Italian pronunciation: [ˈɡuttʃi]) is an Italian luxury fashion house based


in Florence, Italy.[1][2][3] Its product lines include handbags, ready-to-wear, footwear, and accessories,
makeup, fragrances, and home decoration.
Gucci was founded in 1921 by Guccio Gucci in Florence, Tuscany. Under the direction of Aldo
Gucci (son of Guccio), Gucci became a worldwide-known brand, an icon of the Italian Dolce Vita.
Following family feuds during the 1980s, the Gucci family was entirely ousted from the capital of the
company by 1993. After this crisis, the brand was revived with a provocative 'Porno Chic' props. In
1999, Gucci was acquired by the French conglomerate Pinault Printemps Redoute, which later
became Kering. During the 2010s, Gucci became an iconic 'geek-chic' brand.
In 2019, Gucci operated 487 stores for 17,157 employees, and generated €9.628 billion in sales
(€8.2 billion in 2018).[4] Marco Bizzarri is CEO of Gucci since December 2014, and Alessandro
Michele creative director since January 2015. Gucci is a subsidiary of the French luxury
group Kering.
