INTERNATIONAL
"Competing in a shrinking world"
LABORATORIOS INDAS, with presence in 30 countries
throughout 4 continents, is consolidated at an international level.
| |
Our 3 international
offices are located in Argentina, Morocco and Portugal. The three
of them, market our products in their relevant areas; in addition,
we have manufacturing plants in Argentina and Morocco.
|
In 2005, our international staff amounted to 100
employees, and our offices abroad accounted for 10% of the group’s
consolidated income.
Most of our sales turnover in international markets
comes from incontinence care products exported from Spain.
Our core strategy is to have offices specialising
in marketing the products we know best, which account for 70% of our subsidiaries
total sales.
- In Argentina,
we have presence since 1998, where we set up a sanitary
product manufacturing plant producing gauze, for instance. Our customers
are mainly hospitals and clinics.
- In Morocco,
we manufacture children’s diapers for the local market, also importing
and marketing INDAS products from Spain.
The Moroccan and Portuguese subsidiaries celebrated
their 10th anniversary in 2005. We also celebrated
our products’ success in these markets where our motto is “helping
people to live a better live”, as we do in Spain. Our experience
and know-how guide us.
- In Portugal,
we market the products available in the catalogue for Spain. Our customers
are the country’s most important hospitals, hypermarkets and supermarkets,
where our presence is strong.
For those countries where we have settled, our philosophy is to adjust
to the internal market, designing, manufacturing and selling products
that meet local customers’ needs and purchasing power.
In 2006, we will go into new opportunities to settle
in international markets, for we believe that our company’s growth
is partly related to internationalisation. LABORATORIOS INDAS is ready
to face competition in our shrinking world. |
