GENERAL INFORMATION

is specialized in producing Zinc – Chloride Batteries and Household
Chemical Products, Auto Cosmetics and Functional Perfumery.
Zinc – chloride batteries are manufactured under our Trade Mark “ POWER”, which
is protected by a patent in over 20 countries. It covers the full range of batteries /R 03, R 6,
R 14, R 20, 3R 12, 6F 22 / and the same range of alkaline batteries. Our trade Marks has
25% market share, which is approx 4 000 000 /four million/ batteries of all kinds
for the amount of about 700 000€ annually. The last serious marketing research of the
batteries market is from 2006. Our data shows that the market for these batteries at
Bulgaria gets smaller every year. The basic reason for this floating is a lack of producing
electrical devices, used batteries as R14, R20, 6F22 and 3R12. At 2009 and 2010 we
remark sales drop because 3 basic reasons:
- The World Economical crisis;
- Invasion of international trade networks, that imports batteries with their own Trade
Mark;
- Our own fails with the batteries sales;
At this very moment the battery manufacturing’s stopped. A part of machinery
equipment’s removed and storage.
Because the large competition from Chinese companies for batteries (approximately 25%
lower battery’s prices on equal quality), the owner
rearranged their manufacturing for producing new
articles – cleaning chemistry, functional perfumery
and car cosmetics. Basement on the existed
machinery equipment and the employees’
experience, the company becomes new products
developer and researcher, for articles that could be
successfully realized on the domestic and
international markets. Basic investments, made
since 2001 till now, are for equipment for producing
of new articles.
At this moment the company has more than 200 products – developed, tested and
promoted on the market. These products are protected with manufacturing technology and
all the necessary certificates. Produced in different packs, aromatics and concentrating, our
products range is large more than 300 articles. The basic producing of the factory is the
chemistry, but the packs are produced from more than 30 factories at all the country. Also
in many places at Bulgaria we have storage our properties:
- More than 300 formers for injection molding and blowing of plastics;
6
- Over 100 formers for stamp of metals;
- More than 500 punches for cartoon cut and producing paper boxes, packs etc.
Due many years was not made big investments in
high production lines. The owners politic is to
analyzing and searching for more popular
product, and then to make investments for
enlarging of its manufacturing. There is an
opportunity for partition renovation of old factory
equipment.
Household Chemistry includes about 200 types of
products in several groups:
- Solid cleaning products for cloths and textiles – the production capacity is
2 000 000 units for the amount of 900 000€ per year at one shift work time.
- Liquid cleaning detergents for glass surfaces, faiences, tiles, plastic surfaces,
laminates and other floor mosaics and metal surfaces – the capacity is about 600
tons per year for an average amount 950 000€ /1300 units per ton x1,25€/ at one
shift working time.
- Room and car refreshers – about 1 400 000pcs. for the amount of 850 000€ per
year at one shift working time.
- Liquid room refreshers – about 250 tons annually in various quantities for the
amount of about 320 000€
- Conditioners and preparations for washing of household utensils – about 600 tons
annually in various quantities for the amount of about 280 000€ at one shift
working time.
- Paper air fresheners – 4 500 000pcs. – € 360 000
Based on the above statement, it shows that without new investments in machinery, the
factory can have an annual production for about 3 700 000€ at one shift working time,
which is 313 000€ per month. The average margin of over price to the wholesalers is
approximately 40%. This means that with a good management for domestic and
international market, the company can earn monthly according to the kind of produced
products between € 40 000 and 120 000€.
The Monthly cost of the plaint is from 14 000€ to 35 000€, according to its workload.
