BUSINESS AND PROSPECTS
Our 2017 watering pumps sales clustered around May, June and July, with the counterpoint of deflated third quarter figures for Jetly and Dipra. Over that period however, the Group's consolidated turnover did show 6.7% growth (excluding external growth), compared to 10.6% in the first half. This confirms that the companies of the Group that sell equipment to the finishing trades of the construction industry are well positioned to make the most of the recovery observed amongst our wholesaler customers.
To summarise, since the beginning of the year we have recorded organic growth at an average of 9.4% and an even better improvement in operating profit.
We think that this favourable market context, the development of our product ranges and the proven return of inflation will support our growth over the coming months.
