The first quarter of 2017 for Zinzino AB (publ .) saw sales increase by 16% as forecasted. Investment in new technology over this period means they are now well prepared for maintaining growth and increasing profitability.

’’Profitability will double as a result of investment in the digital shift that will simplify and streamline multiple processes in support, finance, logistics, IT and sales. It means our need for investment in technology or staff will be significantly lower as growth increases. In addition, we will also be able to reduce costs in both production and procurement of products and services as volumes increase.”, writes Dag Bergheim Pettersen, CEO of Zinzino in his comments on the report.
