Read MoreHide Full Article

Key Takeaways

  • ONON's EMEA net sales rose 28.6% in Q3 2025, with the UK and France driving consumer demand.
  • UK strength in direct-to-consumer helped accelerate EMEA growth despite currency headwinds.
  • New stores in Zurich and Paris support ONON's premium retail push across core European cities.

On Holding AG’s (ONON - Free Report) latest quarter reflects strengthening momentum in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”), with demand increasingly shaped by the United Kingdom and France. Net sales in EMEA rose to CHF 213.3 million in the third quarter of 2025, up 28.6% year over year on a reported basis. On a constant-currency basis, growth was even stronger at 33%, pointing to solid underlying demand across the region despite currency headwinds.

The United Kingdom has firmly established itself as one of On Holding’s largest global markets. Management noted that continued strength in the United Kingdom, particularly in the direct-to-consumer channel, was a key reason for EMEA's acceleration during the quarter. Beyond the United Kingdom, France saw a notable uplift in brand awareness and consumer interest, alongside Germany and Italy. The brand is successfully leveraging its performance credibility to capture a larger share of the premium sportswear market in these key European hubs. 

The company's strategy of establishing physical brand hubs has further solidified its European presence. A new store in Zurich opened during the quarter, joining a global network that showcases the brand's innovation and design. Management also cited strong contributions from the Champs-Élysées location in Paris, reinforcing that its premium retail strategy is gaining traction in core European cities.
