Florin Barabas, managing director of Kludi Romania, said the company’s sales in Romania have kept the upward trend in 2010, which, he added, reconfirms the company’s initial forecasts.
The company’s sales of smart luxury products (multifunctional products with fancy design, but at affordable prices) rose 27% on the year in the first nine months of 2012.
Kludi Romania forecasts a 12% to 13% uptick in sales in 2012 and a 3% to 5% sales growth in 2013, backed by an increase in Kludi’s market share in Romania estimated to exceed 3% in 2013. Finance Ministry data show Kludi reported a turnover of RON6.9 million in 2011.
In 2011, the market of bathroom and kitchen fittings rose to nearly EUR16 million and the market of shower systems stood at EUR3.5 million.
Kludi’s competitors on the Romanian market include Hansgrohe, Grohe and Roca.
