SPORT AS A DRIVER OF GROWTH
René Lacoste, who created the LACOSTE brand, has always shared his passion for sport. He has always endeavoured to give young people a chance and often to personally monitor many of the young people around him. In creating the LACOSTE Foundation in 2006, LACOSTE was perpetuating the commitment of its founder.
