John
Kruijssen, CEO
of BBH,
comments:“BBH again shows a half year of solid
growth. Although the second quarter has been somewhat softer,
mainly due to the strong comparison base, we have made good
progress during the period and further grown our gross profit. We
have proven that our proposition fits the needs of the customers
and people increasingly recognise the importance of sleep for their
health. With our strong execution capabilities, strong store
network and continuously growing online presence, we remain
confident that we can weather the current challenges driven by the
war in Ukraine, inflation, recession, rising commodity prices and
difficult labour market. We continue to adjust and strengthen our
proposition and are making strong strategic progress. To further
secure and streamline the supply of high-quality products for our
customers, we aim to vertically integrate our value chain and I am
happy to announce that we have signed a binding memorandum of
understanding to form a joint venture with a long-standing
strategic supplier. This partnership creates innovative power,
purchasing advantage of raw materials, and more influence on margin
among other things. DBC also made significant progress in the last
quarters with existing and new partnerships and continued to show
sales growth. We expect that the retail sector will be impacted by
the low consumer spending due to the uncertainties in the market,
however we are confident BBH is resilient in character and ideas
and is on track to realise the 2025 targets.”
