All segments have the same operations. The Company sells its products through two main channels: business-to-business (“B2B”) (comprising sales made to established third-party store networks), and direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) (comprising sales made on globally owned online stores via the Birkenstock.com domain and sales made in Birkenstock retail stores). Seasonality Revenue of our products are affected by a seasonal pattern that is driven in large part by the weather given the nature of our product mix. The seasonal nature of our business is similar across geographies and sales channels with B2B seeing an increase in revenue in the spring months, while revenue in the DTC channel increasing in the summer. Between October and March, we manufacture our products for the B2B channel, and during the first few months of the calendar year, we rely on our built-up inventory for our revenue to B2B partners. Starting in April and during the warmer months of the year, demand for our products from the DTC channel increases. While these consumer buying patterns lead to a natural seasonality in revenue, unseasonable weather could significantly affect revenue and profitability. Our geographical breadth, customer diversity and our strategic focus on expanding certain product categories and entering new territory helps to mitigate part of the effect of seasonality on results of operations.
