Lemet budgeted RON22 million investments in 2018 and hopes to see exports of furniture reach some RON980,000 this year, its officials said.
Most of its production is sold in its own Lem’s stores, 70,000 square meters of retail space in all, throughout the country.
Lemet is currently employing 890 people at its Brebu site, who earn RON2,500 in net amount per month, the company said.
Lemet ended 2017 with RON134 million revenue and net profit of about RON6.9 million, generated by about 850 employees.
The Lemet plant in Brebu was established in 1991. It is one of the few major furniture manufacturers in Romania that do not focus on exports but on the domestic market like Mobexpert and Casa Rusu.
