Lacoste: MF Brands Group is the brand group identified in the reviewed disclosures. [1][2][3]
01 / Behind the name
Private · Maus family group [1][2][3]
Gant and Lacoste are in the Swiss MF Brands group associated with the Maus family. Its published Geneva registered office is not treated here as proof of headquarters or tax residence. [1][2][3]
02 / On the map
Headquarters, incorporation and tax residence describe different things. A headquarters address does not tell you where all of a company’s tax is paid.

Investors not yet verified
Named investors have not yet been established from the evidence used in this directory. This is a research gap; it does not mean the company has no investors. A stake in a parent or operating company is shown against that entity. Dates refer to each disclosure and can differ from the profile review date. Evidence links are included with each record.
03 / The figures, with context
The cited disclosures establish corporate identity and ownership. A UK cash-tax review is outstanding: no worldwide total, accounting tax charge, franchise operator’s payment or parent-group amount is substituted for this brand’s UK cash tax.
Lacoste · UK entity scope not yet verified
Annual reporting period not yet verified
The sources reviewed here establish corporate identity or ownership, not a verified UK-only cash corporation-tax payment. The relevant UK entities, annual reporting period and cash amount still need checking. This is not a zero payment or a finding that the company does not disclose tax. [1][2][3]
These figures have different scopes. They should not be added together or used as a like-for-like tax ranking.
