BioMar concludes the year with solid growth across markets with a significant increase in volumes and revenue, reaching an all-time high level. However, the bottom-line results were affected by the global increase in raw material prices, logistic costs, and energy prices.
The strong growth was driven by a favourable commercial position in promoting high-end product ranges and delivering strong customer service. The increase in Q4 revenue by 33 percent and an increase in sales volumes by 14 percent, was mainly driven by the Salmon Division and the Shrimp business in Latin America.
'I am very satisfied by the performance of the company despite the results not following the development of the top line. We along with all other feed producers are challenged by a situation no one has even seen before. Energy prices has been going through the roof, raw material prices have increased significantly, and logistic costs are at level we have never seen,' explains Carlos Diaz CEO BioMar Group.
'We are working with our customers to find sustainable commercial solutions going forward and we will probably need to look into a new generation of contracts where the volatility of the markets is taken into account to ensure an optimal pricing structure for our customers,' concludes Mr Diaz.
BioMar ends the year with a slight decline in EBITDA compared to 2020, while revenue grow by 14 percent and volume also increased by eight percent for the consolidated companies.
