Juan Ramón López Gil, the company's CFO, says: "Achieving €180 million in sales is a testament to our initiatives and the dedication of our teams. Each region's contribution has been instrumental in achieving these results and our financial discipline and focused strategies will continue to drive our success."

Widespread expansion across categories and regions

The company’s results were driven by strong performances in key regions and product categories. All regions recorded significant growth in 2024, ranging from 19% in the EAT region (Europe, Africa, and Turkey) to 30% in IMEA, with APAC standing out with a strong performance at 23%.

Joan Pere Jimenez, Chief Market Officer, adds: "We are capitalizing on the rapid development of dynamic markets such as Vietnam and Thailand. We are also benefiting from positive market trends in Indonesia where rising disposable income is fueling demand."

The multinational's diverse product portfolio also helped shore up significant gains. The Fine Fragrance category experienced a 28% upswing, while the Home and Personal Care segments saw a 20% increase. This cross-category progress highlights Eurofragance's ability to meet the demand of its customers in their expansion when it comes to offering them the right fragrances to grow their brands.

Expansion fueled by strategic investments and innovations

In 2024, Eurofragance continued to invest in strategic initiatives to support its growth. As part of this effort, the company is currently renovating its facilities in Singapore, including both the factory and the creative center, as well as renewing its premises in Jakarta, Indonesia. The fragrance house's expansion and optimism regarding the future are also evident in its commitment to talent. With new hires across all affiliates and substantial investment in its professional development academies and its talent management program, Eurofragance's workforce grew by 15% in 2024.

The Spanish fragrance house also launched Euphorion™, its first synthetic addition to its ICON Captives collection, a perfumery ingredient that offers a new take on freshness in the perfumer's palette. Laurent Mercier, who has been at the helm of Eurofragance as CEO for the past seven years has played a key role in the accelerated development of the company and its foray into the design of proprietary fragrance ingredients. Mercier explains: "Our disciplined approach to growth and strategic investments in key areas have allowed us to maintain our reputation as a leading player in the fragrance industry. The strategies we have in place will ensure our sustained expansion, and our commitment to innovation will continue to drive our success in the years to come."
