Leisure vehicles
Further improvements of the performance of the supply chain, in particular the end of the shortage of rolling bases, led to strong growth in sales of motorhomes. Deliveries to distributors rose by more than 20% in volume, with favourable price/mix effects boosting sales growth to over 26%.
Sales of mobile homes (up 18%), which benefited from a favourable base effect, also performed well.
On the other hand, sales of caravans (-13%) and accessories for leisure vehicles (-10%) were affected by a wait-and-see approach of retailers in a disrupted economic context.
Leisure equipment
Stable in volume, trailer sales recorded a slight decline (-5%) due to the impact of reductions in the cost of raw materials (mainly steel) in sales prices.
The change in sales of other leisure equipment - camping equipment and garden equipment - is not significant due to the seasonal nature of these activities.
Outlook
Supported by the favourable demographic trend among its customer base, which is generally not very affected by economic slowdowns, the motorhome market is set to remain buoyant in Europe over the next few years. Indeed, as demonstrated by the strong attendance at the main exhibitions and regional trade fairs, motorhomes are proving extremely popular with people looking for closer contact with nature, the opportunity to explore a variety of destinations and to enjoy active leisure while controlling their budget.
In the shorter term, despite the restocking of distributors' stocks in France and Germany, the level of Trigano's order books remains high and saturates its production capacities for the 2023/24 season. Trigano therefore plans growth in its sales over the coming months. The quality of its margins will also enable Trigano to support any sales promotion operation that might prove convenient in the event of a possible change in the market trend.
Building on its solid financial structure and its positive net cash position, Trigano will continue to invest in the distribution of leisure vehicles and will study any external growth operation that would allow it to strengthen its leading positions in the main markets for the manufacture of recreational vehicles and their components, recreational vehicle accessories and trailers in Europe.
Finally, the acquisition of the company BIO Habitat is still being studied by the Competition Authority in France.
