The company announced on Monday that the growth from 55 to 63.5 million euros in sales was an increase of 15 percent. This is attributed to the increased investment by many companies in modern office furniture and the increased demand for locally produced products. Hali will put a new, fully digitalized assembly line into operation in 2024.
In times of a major shortage of skilled workers, many companies are “aware that they have to provide their employees with optimally equipped workstations,” emphasizes hali managing director Daniel Erlinger. The supply chain problem has strengthened regional manufacturers. Erlinger cites “the high quality and excellent price-performance ratio” of hali products as key success factors.
The export quota was twelve percent, with sales in the main export country Germany in particular increasing significantly. Selected key accounts are supported across Europe, but the target markets are still Austria and Germany, it said. The online shop, which was launched three years ago, is constantly being developed.
In the past financial year, 240 employees produced around 115,000 pieces of office furniture for start-ups, SMEs, large companies and end consumers at the Eferding site. The wood used comes almost exclusively from sustainably managed forests. hali is represented with seven sales branches in Austria and field staff in southern Germany.
