Everything about Kofola

All Business

Business

Kofola has overcome the historically most difficult quarter ever beyond expectations

The Kofola Group has sustained its strong position even in one of the most difficult quarters it has ever faced. From the economic point of view, it did excellently. These results were achieved with the help of a long-term company strategy built on traditional and local brands, flexibility in decision-making when looking for savings, and extraordinary employee engagement. Kofola successfully managed to take over the Ondrášovka and Korunní companies, leading to a rise in its market share of Czech retail. The management of Kofola is expecting the whole market to gradually start reawakening, and yet, in the event of swings, the Group has sufficient resources to overcome difficult times.

Business

In the first quarter, the Kofola Group was able to maintain turnover as well as EBITDA. The Group is well prepared for the rest of the year.

In spite of the current situation, the Kofola Group was able to keep both key indicators at the same level as last year – there was only 0.1% decrease in revenues and the EBITDA is actually higher by 0.6%. The Group achieved this excellent result despite all complications caused by measures against the spread of COVID-19 in all countries it operates in, which have strongly affected the whole beverage industry. The management of the Group states that we are well prepared for the upcoming months, even if the economy picks up very slowly.

Business

Kofola ČeskoSlovensko has significantly consolidated its position on the Czech market by the purchase of Karlovarská Korunní and Ondrášovka.

On 15th April 2020, Kofola ČeskoSlovensko became a 100% shareholder in the companies Karlovarská Korunní and Ondrášovka, after the transaction was approved by the Office for the Protection of Competition and all other conditions for the takeover were met. Through the purchase of Korunní and Ondrášovka, Kofola ČeskoSlovensko widens its portfolio to include Czech mineral water brands and significantly strengthens its position in the category of packaged waters on the Czech market. With this acquisition, Kofola takes over the distribution network, liabilities, receivables and all employees. Both parties have previously stated that the transaction price will not be disclosed.

Business

Last year was a successful one. The Kofola Group saw a rise in revenues and in both economic indicators.

In the last year, the Kofola Group increased its revenues by 4.1% to EUR 249 668 thousand, the value of the EBIT key indicator jumped by 2.9% and the EBITDA by 5.9%. This very positive economic result was helped by last quarter, higher sales in the HoReCa segment, and in the terms of brands - primarily Royal Crown Cola, Jupí syrups and Semtex energy drinks. In the Adriatic region, Croatia scored very well in revenues after adjustments to the distribution model. This year, the key priority for the Group will be to effectively meet the challenge of the coronavirus pandemic.

Business

Kofola enters craft cider and soda segment, the company buys F. H. Prager, a Czech beverage producer.

Now it has set on a journey to the craft cider and soda segment. Kofola ČeskoSlovensko has today announced the purchase of the 100% share in the company of the Czech cider producer F. H. Prager, a business with ten years of history on the market.

Business

The Espresso Company has been bringing not only the high-grade coffee Café Reserva but also premium Dilmah teas together with appropriate service and culture to the Czech market for more than two decades. The founders of the company, Mr and Mrs Moravec, signed a contract with Kofola to sell 100% of the shares, which is why Espresso is now fully under the wings of the Kofola Group.This transaction gives Espresso an owner strong in marketing and distribution, with a sensitive approach to brands. With this acquisition, the Kofola Group is expanding its offer for gastro customers with other significant categories.The two parties have agreed not to disclose the transaction price.

Kofola Group on a Wave of Growth

Kofola Group´s revenue in 2018 grew by 2.2% compared to 2017, EBITDA increased by 6.4%, EBIT by 15.3%. Sales increased in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and the Adriatic region. Kofola's positive economic results were maintained despite the very difficult situation on the Polish market, where Kofola, until recently, operated via Hoop Polska. This company was sold in March 2019. Kofola will remain in the Polish market thanks to Premium Rosa, a producer of fruit and herbal juices.

Business

Kofola Group successful in the first six months of the year

Kofola Group increased all economic indicators in the first six months of the year. The Group´s sales rose by 7 %, without taking the Polish segment into account, and by 1.9 % including this segment. The EBIT indicator value rose even by 113.7 %, the EBITDA indicator rose by 25.9 %. Apart from higher sales, Kofola reports that the investors were paid the highest dividends in the history of the group and that they want to continue with this responsive policy in the future.

Business

In June, Kofola achieved the highest sales in its history. The Adriatic region makes them happy.

Despite the record growth in sales in both the Czech and Slovak Republic and the Adriatic region, the Kofola Group expectedly reported a year-on-year decrease of 3.8% in the first half of the year. EBITDA declined by 32.1% year on year.

Business

Kofola has grown in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and the Adriatic region. It continues to invest in a healthy lifestyle.

Kofola’s revenues stagnated last year. The EBITDA economic indicator reached EUR 36 million and decreased by 10.7%. The company performed well on the CzechoSlovak market, growing strongly again in the Adriatic region. Despite the previously announced decrease in Poland, the company succeeds in building new pillars. Kofola Group reaffirms a clear direction towards healthy natural foods and their share in total sales is growing sharply.

Business

Kofola heads to the herbal business

The paths of two Czech brands with a long tradition have reunited after several decades. LEROS, a manufacturer of mixtures from medicinal plants and high-quality natural teas, still under its original name Medicinal Plants - Zbraslav, once supplied the right herbs for the production of the Kofola drink. Today, both companies have connected more closely. Kofola ČeskoSlovensko purchases a 100% share in the traditional Czech company LEROS, including production capacities and all employees. The LEROS company will be lead by an experienced manager Martin Mateáš, who worked for Kofola for 11 years and now returns after a four-year break. Both companies agreed not to publish the transaction price.
