If Kering, the parent company of Gucci and Volcom, believes that Puma is a “noncore asset” and is looking to sell the German footwear company for $7 Billion (according to Challenges via Hypebeast) so it can focus more on “luxury,” what does this mean for VeeCo? Seeing as Kering’s Sport & Lifestyle division is made up of Puma, Volcom, and Cobra Golf who knows what’s ahead.
The big question: how long will it be before Kering sells Volcom back to Wooly at a hugely discounted price? Will it be soon? We hope so.
