Naturhouse enters Austria and increases its international presence to 34 countries
Madrid, 10 May 2018.- Naturhouse, a company specialising in the sale of dietary products and dietary re-education, has taken a further step in its international growth strategy by entering Austria. With the opening of this new market, Naturhouse is now present in 34 different countries.
Naturhouse’s arrival in Austria takes place via a master franchise agreement with businesspeople Jan Gonda, Lech Razniewski and Ján Drábik, who also have the master franchise contract with Naturhouse for the Czech Republic. Following the success of the latter country, where Naturhouse has almost 100 stores, the businessmen have decided to commit to our company once again, encouraged by the positive outlook for Austria and their knowledge of and experience with the brand.
With this agreement, Naturhouse will open at least 19 new stores over the next seven years. The first store is expected to open in Austria’s third-largest city, Linz.
Austria’s positive macroeconomic performance and the fact that the country has one of the highest retail sales growth rates means we can be optimistic about Naturhouse’s performance there over the coming years.
According to Félix Revuelta, Chairman of Naturhouse, “Our arrival in Austria is a new step in the international growth of our business and the consolidation of our brand, once again highlighting our company’s appeal in new markets.”
