Electrolux Romania business up 30% in H1

Household appliance producer Electrolux Romania posted RON 308.2 million (€87 mln) in turnover in the first half of 2008, 30.45 percent higher than in H1 2007, according to a company press release.

The results are in keeping with the group’s international level development strategy, the release writes. Electrolux Romania is part of Swedish Electrolux group, which sells more than 40 million products annually in 150 countries.

The rise in turnover is due to successful implementation of production, sales and marketing plans, Electrolux Romania Communication and Marketing Manager Carmen Georgescu said.

The Swedish group has been operating in Romania since 1995, with a sales and marketing division in Bucharest, and a stove factory in the northern city of Satu Mare, where most Zanussi stoves sold in Europe are produced.

Electrolux products are sold under the Electrolux, AEG-Electrolux, Zanussi, Eureka and Frigidaire brands. (Newsin)
