The market leader, eMag, a company controlled by South Africa’s Naspers, posted EUR154 million revenue last year. On the other hand, F64, a retailer specializing in photo and video equipment and accessories made EUR1.1 million net profit in 2012, the highest of the 15 retailers.
The company owned by Marian Alecsiu and Daniela Becheru had a 6.2% profit margin, the highest of all the 15. The net profit margin of nine of the 15 retailers was less than 1%, according to the Finance Ministry data.
The ranking shows the market leader eMag, makes more than 50% of the total revenue of the 15 retailers. eMag’s share is even higher, because the total sales generated by the retailer stood at EUR165 million euros.
The difference between the revenue shown in the report to the Finance Ministry (EUR154 million) and the overall revenue (EUR165 million) is because of the business conducted by other companies via eMag’s Marketplace. eMag gets a 5% fee of the bill for every Marketplace transaction.
Three companies stand out as the biggest rivals of eMag; the group of entrepreneur Marius Ghenea (Fit Distribution and PC Garage), retailer cel.ro – controlled by Mihai Nenciu and F64, a photo and video equipment retailer.
Companies ranked seventh and lower posted less than EUR5 million revenue each.
The only retailer to have overshot the EUR10 million mark other than eMag and its three biggest rivals, is evomag.ro, a company owned by Mihai Patrascu, whose revenue rose 32% in euros.
