According to Paris news, in the increasingly smooth digital era for future brand positioning, while considering the impact of currency fluctuations, the French fashion company Chanel will adjust the price for the three big handbag brands since April 8th, the exchange rate has led to a substantial increase in prices in Europe and a substantial decline in prices in Asia.

The Chanel package will rise in price from April 8th, with a maximum increase of 38%.

Among them, the Boy chanel rose 20%, the classical rose 20%, the GST rose 38%, the classic wallet (including double C buttons, Kang Peng series and Camellia Series) increased by 20%, and other watches, clothes and shoes would rise, but the price range was not so big.

Bruno Pavlovsky, President of Chanel fashion division, said: "in this way, the global price fluctuation of the company will not exceed or lower than the benchmark of 10% euros. He pointed out that the price of other products will also begin to adjust in the 2015-16 quarter."

He described the new price policy as "the best way to maintain good relations with consumers", which will undoubtedly be a heavy blow to brand competitors.

The reason for this adjustment is to ensure that consumers are attracted by brands and products rather than guided by price differences. He said: "this is for the next 10-15 years of brand planning.

We care more about the future than in the past.

The rapid devaluation of the euro has become very prominent in recent months. Some Chanel products are two times as expensive in Europe as in Asia.

According to Pavlovsky, this has led to "huge growth in the parallel market, especially in China and Southeast Asia," which is not yet a strong market quota for Chanel in boutiques.

The parallel market of luxury goods is always a headache for the authenticity of products.

"We hope that we are not in the list," he said in an interview. "There is no good way to resist forgery, but only by price.

"

Chanel plans to gradually launch a price adjustment plan in all fashion categories, with the goal of being fully implemented at the end of this year except Brazil (Brazil's higher export tariffs).

The spring and summer handover is the annual price increase season of luxury goods, and the annual price increase is also known as habitual price increase.

There is a professional media evaluation of foreign handbags for CHANEL products. This year, the price will rise, but the magnitude and time of price increase.

There are also news reports including LV, Hermes, Burberry and other luxury brands will also rise in price, an average of about 10%.
