The Managing Director of Metro Cash&Carry Romania&Moldova, Francois Oliver, said 2009 is “a year for adaptation and flexibility” needed to ensure that companies avoid the global financial crisis.
“Business must be adapted. The more you are flexible and adapted to market conditions, the less you will be impacted by the current economic situation. We are also adjusting in terms of exchange rate,” he said.
Metro Cash&Carry sales increased in Romania in December, with bestsellers food products. “Food sales will also increase in 2009,” according to the company’s Operations Manager, Vladimir Vava.
Metro Cash&Carry Romania has 24 units locally, and posted €1.59 billion in turnover 2007.
