Damm has also strengthened its leadership position in the drinks sector with its recent alliance with Nestlé to produce, market, and distribute Nestea in Spain, Andorra, Gibraltar, and Portugal. Among its achievements, Damm revealed how it has invested €8.9 million into “research and development” and “new product design” as well as “technological innovation” and “digital transformation”.
Damm has also admitted that it has spent €6.9 million on meeting its eco-goals in an effort to become even more sustainable and has used the money to fund environmental initiatives and activities.
Speaking about the figures, Damm executive chairman Demetrio Carceller Arce said: “The 2024 results highlight the strength of Damm’s business model for long-term growth. It also demonstrates the company's success in increasing profitability at a challenging time of persistent inflation, less consumer spending and a high level of global uncertainty."
