Fired LVMH executive seeks $2 million after whistleblower claim
The Mercury
|September 23, 2025
A FIRED LVMH executive - accused of misconduct including giving a colleague the middle finger - is suing Moët Hennessy for €1.7 million ($2 million), saying he was really ousted for flagging sanctions-busting sales to Russia, not his management style.
-
Kenneth Kralick, who led online sales for the wines and spirits division of LVMH, says his boss turned against him after blowing the whistle in April 2023 on an alleged parallel distribution system channeling products through the US to Russia.
“That's when the real difficulties began,” his lawyer Marine Le Conte told the Paris tribunal on Thursday. She argued he was harassed in the run-up to his dismissal a year later. His remit was cut back and his boss deliberately ran meetings in French - a language Kralick doesn't speak.
