Marcel Bărbuţ, owner of AdePlast Oradea producer of building materials, hopes exports will come to account for 20% in this year's turnover, from 10% in 2010, so that after having entered the Lebanese market, he has set his new targets: Ukraine and Bulgaria.
The export development plan entails turning irregular orders into stable sales markets. At present, the producer's most important markets are Hungary and Moldova.
In 2010, the company's turnover rose by 11.5% to 126.7m lei (around 30m euros) and in the first two months of this year AdePlast saw sales go up by around 25% from a year ago.
Asked whether he would sell his business, the businessman says he would exit if he were offered 100m euros, but he is not sure whether he would start another business. He has not given up his dream of floating the company on the bourse, either, but he says he is waiting for the right moment: "Ideally, there should be someone taking 25% of the company, because we could make much more investments. Anyway, we're already open, as if we were listed on the bourse and wanted to inform our shareholders about our situation".
