Does LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton support Israel?
Yes — LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton has documented support for Israel on record. Every claim below links to its source.
Filed under: Fashion & apparel brands · Beauty & cosmetics brands · Companies that support Israel
Background
LVMH's documented Israel ties are investments, not donations. The group has no directly owned retail network in Israel — Sephora (LVMH-owned) has never opened Israeli stores, and LVMH maisons sell there through importers and travel retail. Boycott-list entries for LVMH rest mainly on the 2022 Lusix investment by LVMH Luxury Ventures and on Israeli tech investments by Aglaé Ventures, the Arnault family office, which is legally separate from the listed company. No LVMH corporate donation, statement, or aid connected to Israel or the 2023–24 war was found; industry press noted LVMH was among the beauty giants that made no public statement after October 7, 2023.

Timeline of documented support
Documented support
| Type | Date | Amount | Recipient | Sources |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Investment / program | 2022-06 | — | Lusix (Israeli lab-grown diamond producer) LVMH Luxury Ventures — the group's own venture-capital arm — was the most prominent investor in a $90 million funding round for Lusix, the Israeli solar-powered lab-grown diamond company founded by Benny Landa, financing expansion of its production capacity in Israel with a second facility. LVMH's own share of the round was not disclosed. LVMH-owned TAG Heuer had already used Lusix diamonds in its Carrera Plasma watch. (Lusix later hit financial difficulty in the 2024 lab-grown diamond price slump.) | |
| Investment / program | 2021-06 | — | Wiz (Israeli cloud-security company) Aglaé Ventures, the tech-investment arm of Bernard Arnault's family holding — Arnault is LVMH's chairman, CEO and controlling shareholder — participated in Israeli cybersecurity firm Wiz's $120 million Series B tranche (with Salesforce Ventures, Blackstone and Howard Schultz) at a $1.7 billion valuation. This was an Arnault family-office investment, distinct from LVMH corporate funds. |
