Centrum Klima - dynamic development of export operation
Centrum Klima - a manufacturer and distributor of ventilation and air-conditioning systems which enjoys the position of a leader on the Polish market and an important European player - dynamically increases the share of export in its income. In the first half of 2010 foreign share of the company increased by 35.9% (from 7.99 to 10.87 million PLN) as compared to the analogous period in 2009, including the increase in the sale of products by as much as 78.4%. According to the adopted strategy, the target share of exports in the income of Centrum Klima should reach 45%. Achievement of this objective will be possible, among other things, due to: further development of the product offer, extension of the machine park and expansion into new markets. Since the beginning of 2010 the Company has already won 55 new foreign customers.
Increased exports
The export of Centrum Klima in the first six months of 2009 amounted to 23% of the total income of the company, and in the analogous period of 2010its share in the income increased up to 28%. After the excellent first half of 2010 foreign share of Centrum Klima has been growing systematically. Data from July 2010 indicate export increase by as much as 46.77% and in August by 20.87%, as compared to 2009.
New foreign markets
Significant growth of the export share in the income of Centrum Klima results from systematic development of international cooperation. In the first half of 2010 the company entered the markets of Austria Croatia, Faroe Islands, Morocco, Switzerland and Turkey. Furthermore, Centrum Klima started cooperation with new contractors from Sweden, Ukraine, Belarus, Germany, Bulgaria, Netherlands, Romania, Estonia, Great Britain, Czech Republic, Belgium, Finland, Denmark or Portugal. The company sells its products to customers from a total of 34 countries worldwide..
It is also worth mentioning that the company constantly develops its product portfolio and the increase of the company’s production capacity due to the opening of a modern complex in Wieruchów. New machine park of Centrum Klima should guarantee the company a four-fold increase of production capacity during 1.5 year.
"We are very satisfied with the export dynamics achieved by Centrum Klima. The investment in Wieruchów finalized in August 2010 should guarantee us further increase and the achievement of the target 45% export share in the company’s income. We continue to receive new orders which - owing to investment expenditure in the infrastructure - are carried out on an ongoing basis. We also lead intense negotiations with next potential contractors, e.g. from Scandinavian countries, Germany or France. The size of export generated in the first half of 2010, as well as record results achieved in July and August, allow us to be optimistic about the future" - says Marek Perendyk, the President of the Board of Centrum Klima SA.
Development of export division
On account of dynamic development of foreign trade, the Management Board of Centrum Klima decided to establish a separate unit responsible for cooperation with foreign contractors, as part of the trade department. Further, active export politics of the company - supported by the expansion of the product portfolio and the increase of the production scale - will guarantee further systematic development of trade relations.
