In Romania, private labels at end-2021 came to hold a 15.1% market share in total consumer goods sales, after a 15% increase on the year. Overall, the private label market can be valued at around EUR3-4 billion, in line with ZF calculations.

“We’ve recently launched new private label products on the local market: Jim, the beverage containing five types of vitamin B, as well as the Crunch&Go chips, with four different flavors. We’ve already received very good feedback from our clients and we believe this step will also aid the development of the non-fuel sales segment,” says Camelia Ene, CEO & country chair at MOL Romania.

Last year, the company reported RON7.9 billion turnover and net profit of around RON350 million, with both indicators significantly higher than the 2020 ones.
