Burberry Plans to Cut 1,700 Jobs to Tackle Luxury Slump

  • On May 13, 2025, Burberry announced plans to cut 1,700 global jobs as part of cost-saving measures amid its ongoing turnaround.
  • Burberry's workforce reduction follows a 12% sales decline for the fiscal year and a difficult macroeconomic environment worsened by geopolitical uncertainty.
  • The group reported a 17% revenue drop to £2.46 billion and a net loss of £75 million for the year, while also flagging weaker demand in Asia and Europe.
  • Chief executive Joshua Schulman, appointed in July, said they operate against a "difficult macroeconomic backdrop" but remained "more optimistic than ever" about Burberry's future.
  • Burberry expects the job cuts and savings of £60 million by 2027 to help the embattled luxury brand reduce costs and boost sales during its early-stage turnaround.
