The homeless teen who created Louis Vuitton
“Looking at Louis Vuitton’s business and financial success today, you would never guess that the company was started by a man who was homeless during his teenage years, had no education, and slept in a forest. Louis Vuitton is a true business rags-to-riches story. But the company would also be the subject of a hostile takeover, countless lawsuits, and a host of other controversies. This is the insane story of Louis Vuitton, and how a tiny family business evolved into one of the most powerful brands in the world.” – MagnatesMedia
