HERIGE holds up well in a declining market, with first-half growth of 10.2%
Good performance in a declining construction market
Despite the worsening market decline, HERIGE Group posted turnover of €228.0 million in the second quarter of 2023, up 4.0% on the same period in 2022 (down 5.1% like-for-like). Sales growth was driven by the price effect and acquisitions, which offset the unfavorable calendar impact of two days during the period.
- Industrial Joinery recorded a 38.4% increase in turnover (up 2.8% on a like-for-like basis), buoyed by the three latest acquisitions and opening products.
- The Concrete Industry, with 4.3% growth (up 1.8% on a like-for-like basis), benefited from the integration of the Audoin & Fils plants and favorable trends in ready-mix concrete.
- Turnover for Building Materials Trading was down 11.2%, impacted by a volume effect in a sharply declining new construction market.
Overall, in first-half 2023, HERIGE Group posted turnover of €455.0 million, an increase of 10.2% (up 0.2% like-for-like).
Outlook and developments
In an economic environment characterized by a marked slump in new construction, HERIGE's priority is to continue consolidating its operating performance. The Group can leverage the relevance of its strategic positioning in the renovation and refurbishment markets, its commercial and industrial initiatives, and a product range tailored to meet energy and decarbonization challenges.
