Global Reach

The company’s products are sold in approximately 120 countries. The company services its customers through its global infrastructure, developing, sourcing and marketing the company’s products around the world.

Beyond Yoga products are sold in the United States primarily through specialty retailers, pure-play wholesalers, brand-dedicated company-operated retail stores and a company-operated brand dedicated e-commerce site. The company distributes Levi Strauss Signature and Denizen brand products primarily through mass channel retailers in the Americas, including the e-commerce sites operated by some of the company’s key wholesale customers and other pure-play customers.

Business Strategies

The company’s strategies are to continue elevating and strengthening all of the company’s brands through integrating product, design, positioning, marketing and consumer experience to ensure they are the ‘Center of Culture’; continue building a harmonized omni-channel marketplace where each channel reinforces the other, driving consumer engagement and increasing their satisfaction; and accelerate the company’s global reach while ensuring its U.S. operations continue to deliver steady growth, including unlocking the potential of Beyond Yoga.
