Levi Strauss & Co (US)

Levi Strauss & Co, the company which invented the concept of blue jeans, is still weathering the chill wind of changing fashion. During the 1980s and 1990s, Levi's turned streetwear into a fashion statement. By the mid-90s, the company was chalking up sales of over $7bn. But when change came, it came fast. Within two years, market share had halved, and since then profits have plunged from over $1bn in 1997 to net losses in 2003. Performance has improved since then, but Levi Strauss is still under considerable pressure. Click here to access the Adbrands profile (subscribers only); or subscribe to Adbrands.net here.
