Products are sold at a range of price points through multiple channels of distribution, including specialty stores, department stores, national chains, mass merchants, VF-operated stores, and e-commerce sites. VF&#x2019;s ten largest customers, all U.S.-based retailers, accounted for 21% of 2012 total revenues, and sales to VF&#x2019;s largest customer accounted for 8% of 2012 total revenues. Sales are generally made on an unsecured basis under customary terms that may vary by product, channel of distribution or geographic region. VF continuously monitors the creditworthiness of its customers and has established internal policies regarding customer credit limits. The breadth of product offerings, combined with the large number and geographic diversity of its customers, limits VF&#x2019;s concentration of risks.</font></p> </div>
