Ortega is the world\u2019s 13th-wealthiest person and Europe\u2019s second-richest man.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Key Background<\/h2>\n<p>Ortega was actually briefly the wealthiest person on the planet in 2016, though his position slipped in <em>Forbes<\/em>\u2019 billionaire rankings as Inditex endured several years of stock market struggles. Shares slipped more than 40% from their 2017 prior peak to its 2022 nadir. Zara accounted for 73% of Inditex sales last year, while Europe brought in about 60% of Inditex\u2019s revenue, while North and South America accounted for 20% of sales, combined. Joining Inditex in posting strong market performance this year are rivals H&amp;M, whose shares are up 46% year-to-date, and Uniqlo parent Fast Retailing, whose shares are up 22%. Inditex\u2019s $32.9 billion in 2022 sales easily topped Fast Retailing\u2019s $18.4 billion and H&amp;M\u2019s $17.4 billion.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">What To Watch For<\/h2>\n<p>The upstart Chinese fast fashion firm Shein is aiming to eventually go public in the U.S. at an up to $90 billion valuation, Bloomberg reported earlier this month, setting itself up to record one of the largest initial public offerings ever.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Tangent<\/h2>\n<p>For years, the fast fashion industry has faced significant backlash for the sourcing of its labor and its large carbon footprint. Shein has faced the sharpest criticism for its alleged reliance on forced labor in China\u2019s Xinjiang region, but Zara and Uniqlo have also faced international probes for the alleged use of forced Chinese labor, while H&amp;M stopped sourcing labor from Myanmar in August due to worker abuse allegations.
