Eurofragance has also achieved growth in mature markets like Europe and Spain, where figures are up by 17% and 18%, respectively.

In addition, Eurofragance has started expanding in new markets like the United States, where it recently acquired a majority stake in Fragrance Design LLC, an Atlanta-based company, a transaction that will be complete in 2018.

In the Personal Care and Household segments, Eurofragance grew by 22% and 24%, respectively, with innovative, creative products designed to appeal specifically to each client, providing great added value.

The new CEO, Laurent Mercier, the main driving force behind the transformation of Eurofragance, says that "the goal is to continue with the 2020 strategic plan, focused on Eurofragance's growth and profitability".

At the same time, Eurofragance continues to invest in talent, with a workforce of 24 nationalities that grew from 271 to 280 employees last year.
