Fast Retailing Co., Ltd., a leading global retail company primarily known for its UNIQLO brand, operates in the apparel industry with a focus on providing high-quality, affordable clothing. The company is recognized for its innovative LifeWear concept, which emphasizes sustainability and quality.
Fast Retailing Co. has reported a robust financial performance for the nine months ending May 31, 2025, with significant increases in both revenue and operating profit. The company’s consolidated revenue reached 2.6167 trillion yen, marking a 10.6% year-on-year growth, while operating profit rose by 12.2% to 450.9 billion yen. This growth was largely driven by strong performances across its UNIQLO operations in Japan and international markets.
Key financial highlights include a profit before income taxes of 520.5 billion yen, up 8.9% from the previous year, and a profit attributable to owners of the parent company of 339.0 billion yen, reflecting an 8.4% increase. UNIQLO Japan and UNIQLO International both reported substantial revenue and profit growth, with notable performances in North America and Europe. However, the GU segment experienced a decline in profits despite revenue growth, due to higher costs and insufficient product preparation.
The company continues to focus on strategic initiatives such as expanding its global store network, enhancing product development, and promoting sustainability through its LifeWear concept. Fast Retailing is committed to reducing its environmental impact and improving supply chain transparency and labor conditions.
Looking ahead, Fast Retailing maintains a positive outlook, projecting continued revenue and profit growth for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2025. The company aims to strengthen its position as a leading global apparel brand by focusing on innovation, sustainability, and customer satisfaction.
