Tapestry owns Coach and kate spade new york, with handbags and accessories accounting for most sales. Coach supplies the large majority of revenue; Kate Spade is a smaller business. Consumers pay the company mainly through its retail and outlet stores and brand websites. Department stores and other retail partners buy products wholesale, providing a smaller share of sales, while licensees pay royalties to use its brands on other goods.
The company’s design teams develop collections, while independent manufacturers make the products. This leaves Tapestry dependent on maintaining its brands’ appeal and matching changing fashion preferences, especially for Coach. It also relies on cross-border sourcing to supply its stores and online customers.
