Aliz Kosza, the new CEO of Fabryo Corporation, varnish and dye producer, expects turnover to register an average increase of around 20-30% over the next three years due to real estate market growth.
Fabryo, which derived turnover worth 42m euros last year, up 30% on the previous year, will invest in the development of its network of showrooms this year, after it completed a 15m-euro investment in the construction of a production facility close to Popesti-Leordeni, near Bucharest.

Over the past 10 years, she has filled several management positions with several companies that include general manager of MOL Romania and sales coordinator for Kraft Jacobs Suchard in Romania.
