Groupe Seb results

Posted on by

Groupe Seb published its 2024 annual results, which demonstrate sustained commercial momentum and an improvement in its profitability in a still uncertain economic context. Its turnover reached €8.266 billion and shows an increase of 3.2% in published data and 5% at constant exchange rates and scope.

This performance was mainly driven by the Consumer business , with organic growth of 6% (+9% excluding China). The Group thus returned to solid growth in Western Europe and North America, while Eastern Europe and South America continued their double-digit growth. For its part, the Professional business experienced a year of consolidation after strong performances in 2023. Although its sales fell by 4.5%, 2024 represents the second best year in history in terms of revenue for coffee. ”  2024 was also marked by major strategic advances: the launch of a hub in China for Professional Coffee and the strengthening of our expertise in Professional Culinary with the acquisition of the Sofilac Group ,” said Stanislas de Gramont , CEO.

At the same time, operating profit from activity (ROPA) increased by 10.5% to reach €802 million. The operating margin thus improved to 9.7% of sales, compared to 9.1% in 2023. This increase is explained by a positive volume effect and a decrease in the cost of sales, which more than offset the commercial and marketing investments made to support growth.
