Automotive parts specialist AUTODOC already exceeds 600 million euros in sales after three quarters |
|
Berlin, 7 December, 2020 (APA/OTS) - Sales revenue target of 800 million euros for full year 2020 confirmed - Record result on Black Friday 2020 - AUTODOC, Europe's leading online retailer for automotive parts, accessories, and equipment, saw its sales rise to over 600 million euros in the first three quarters of the year. This constitutes an impressive increase of around 40% compared to the same period last year. In 2019, the company's revenue between January and September amounted to a total of 434 million euros. Despite the pandemic, the company is thus clearly continuing on its strong growth path. AUTODOC's chief executive Alexej Erdle has stated that he firmly believes the company will achieve the announced sales target of 800 million euros by the end of the year - up from 615 million euros in 2019. |
AUTODOC has so far shown particularly strong growth in its core
markets of Germany and France during the fiscal year 2020, with
sales rising by well over 50% in the two countries. AUTODOC achieved
even more substantial gains in Great Britain, where sales increased
by over 80%. The company's own brands, Stark and Ridex, also
contributed to the above-average business development with sales
growth of 65% compared to the same period last year.
Only recently, AUTODOC had expanded its range of products. These
up-and-coming divisions have shown positive development. The
business segments in question include the tyre business, which
tripled its sales compared to the first three quarters of the
previous year. But even the motorbike parts unit, which is still in
its start-up phase, almost doubled its sales in the same time span.
Good prospects continue The fact that AUTODOC is maintaining its growth targets despite the
renewed lockdown is partly due to the experience of previous years.
Traditionally, the two months of October and November are among the
strongest sales periods of the year, before business usually slows
down over the holidays at the end of December. Based on the figures
available, the management expects the annual sales target of 800
million euros for 2020 to be achieved. The spare parts aftermarket
is also likely to benefit from the continued reluctance to buy new
cars. In Germany, for instance, the average age of the vehicle fleet
in 2020 has increased by 0.1 to 9.6 years, according to the Federal
Motor Transport Authority (KBA).
Record number of orders on Black Friday As a renowned online specialist, AUTODOC naturally took the
opportunity of the Cyber Week at the end of November to offer
special deals - an approach that has been a tremendous success, as
it now turns out. After all, Black Friday, which fell on 27 November
2020, saw AUTODOC setting another record in its unusual success
story. For the first time, a total of 80,000 orders were exceeded in
just one day.
