economic development in 2021
Atria controlled the difficult circumstances — net sales and adjusted EBIT increased
In terms of growth and the result, 2021 was a strong year for Atria. Atria’s net sales increased to EUR 1,540.2 million. This represents an increase of EUR 36 million on the previous year. This was a good development considering that the sale of Atria’s Russian subsidiary OOO Pit-Product was completed in April, and it had a negative impact on full-year net sales. Despite the sale of the business, Atria was able to even increase its net sales in 2021.
Strong and solid performance
"Atria’s growth and profitability improved greatly in 2021, partly even more than expected. Even though the pandemic continued to cause uncertainties in the operations and operating environment, the entire Atria food chain operated securely. We were also able to respond to the fast changing needs of customers and in the consumption demand.”
Mika Ala-Fossi, Executive Vice President, Atria Finland
Net sales EUR 1,105.7 million (EUR 1,066.3 million in 2020)
EBIT EUR 48.1 million (EUR 43.1 million in 2020)
Moderate growth
“Atria Sweden’s growth and profitability developed favourably. Even though the factors behind the growth in net sales and EBIT were significantly different than in 2020, the direction of the development remained upwards for the third year in a row. “
Jarmo Lindholm, Executive Vice President, Atria Sweden
Net sales EUR 351.7 million (EUR 332.2 million in 2020)
EBIT EUR 2.7 million (EUR 0.8 million in 2020)
Strong market positions
Strong position in the cold cuts market in Denmark
“With a share of around 17 percent, Atria Denmark has a strong position in the country’s large cold cuts market. We were able to even strengthen our position.”
Svend Schou Borch, Executive Vice President, Atria Denmark business unit
New products strengthened the position in Estonia
“Atria’s sales to the retail trade in Estonia developed favourably. The development was boosted by new brand products, as we introduced as many as 54 new ones to the market.”
Olle Horm, Executive Vice President, Atria Estonia business unit
Net sales EUR 104.9 million (EUR 106.8 million in 2020)
EBIT EUR 5.1 million (EUR 5.3 million in 2020)
