Apparel Quarterly Update – Winter 2018
Looking at the year gone by, consumer M&A activity continued to surge with valuations not seen since the economic downturn of 2008 and over $137 billion in total transaction value. Consumer confidence continues to rise, with U.S. retail sales increasing by 4.2% in 2017, bolstered by one of the strongest holiday seasons in recent years. Despite its challenges, the Apparel sector could, somewhat surprisingly, also be characterized as a year of growth.
