Hugo Boss AG

Hugo Boss, based in Metzingen, is Germany's best-known fashion house, selling suits, casual wear and accessories under the Boss and Hugo brands through its own stores, wholesale partners and a growing online channel. A brand relaunch has broadened its appeal to younger shoppers. Hugo Boss has a long dividend history but cut the payout during the pandemic before rebuilding it, and the yield is moderate. As a consumer-discretionary name its dividend depends on fashion demand and the economy, so it offers a decent but cyclical income.
