Movado Group, Inc. is a watchmaker headquartered in Paramus, New Jersey, that designs, manufactures, and distributes wristwatches across a portfolio of ten brands. The company operates manufacturing facilities in Switzerland and employs over 1,300 people worldwide, reaching consumers across North and South America, Europe, Asia, and the Far East.
The company's portfolio spans two categories. Its five owned brands - Movado, EBEL, Concord, Olivia Burton, and MVMT - cover a range of market segments, from Swiss luxury to direct-to-consumer fashion watches. It also holds licenses to produce watches under five major fashion labels: Coach, HUGO BOSS, Lacoste, Tommy Hilfiger, and Calvin Klein. Managing this breadth of brands involves significant operations in product design, brand management, licensing, and global distribution.
The business was built on the entrepreneurial foundation laid by Gedalio Grinberg, who arrived in the United States from Cuba in the early 1960s. Today, the company's technical and operational work spans watch design, precision manufacturing, supply chain coordination, and brand licensing - functions that increasingly intersect with digital retail, data, and consumer technology as the broader watch industry evolves.
