JOTT acquired by L CATTERTON

L Catterton has completed the acquisition of a majority stake in JOTT (Just Over The Top), a French brand specializing in urban outerwear. The transaction enables the fund to become the controlling shareholder alongside founders Nicolas and Mathieu Gourdikian, who retain a minority stake and remain involved in the company's governance and operational development. This deal is part of a broader capital restructuring effort aimed at supporting a new phase of growth for the brand, characterized by accelerated international expansion and the development of a multichannel business model. L Catterton's investment comes at a time of high demand for premium lifestyle brands, driven by shifting consumer behaviors and the rising popularity of casualwear. The fund brings its extensive expertise in consumer and fashion brands to support JOTT's transformation into a global urbanwear player. The planned strategy focuses on accelerating international expansion, strengthening the physical distribution network, and developing the digital channel, while continuing to enhance the product offering through gradual upscaling. The current management team will remain in place to ensure strategic and operational continuity, allowing JOTT to build on its existing momentum and leverage L Catterton's resources to drive future growth.
