Comments from the President’s address to the AGM
In his address to the AGM, Gunnebo’s President & CEO Henrik Lange shared an updated view on the Group’s customers, offering and new launches during 2015. He then reviewed the results for 2015 by region. Thereafter he summarized the overall activities that the Group will have in focus into 2020:
"Gunnebo's journey towards profitable growth is about leaving behind the 'island mentality' where sales companies are still to a large extent running daily business according to local processes. This has resulted in an unsatisfactory level of profitability and a lack of focus on cash flow. To become a profitable company, we will therefore focus heavily over the next four years on finding an efficient and standardised way of doing business.
"In addition, we will utilise our technologies to capture growth in a better way, improve our work with key accounts and service delivery, strengthen our value chain, focus on productivity, and - last but not least - attract and retain good employees.
"Both myself and the Group Executive Team are convinced that these activities will contribute to better customer focus, increased profitability and an improved cash flow."
