EUROPEAN CAMPING GROUP, the European leader in the mobile-home holidays sector, announces EUR 230 million consolidated net revenues for the financial year closing on 30/09/17. The Group has posted 25% average annual growth over the past ten years and this performance confirms its position as the leader of the mobile-home holidays sector in Europe.
EUROPEAN CAMPING GROUP is a pure player in its sector, with a current 20,000 units’ rental fleet, including over 90% of mobile-homes. These are installed across 300 campsites, either owned by ECG or by partners, mainly in France, Italy, Spain and Croatia.
Through its five complementary brands, which are all leaders in their source market (HOMAIR in France, EUROCAMP and AL FRESCO in the UK and ROAN and GO4CAMP in the Netherlands), EUROPEAN CAMPING GROUP offers a unique range of holidays to an international clientele mainly from northern Europe (notably the UK, the Netherlands, Germany and Denmark), with French nationals representing approximately 25% of the Group’s clients.
Commercialised through a variety of complementary direct distribution channels (catalogues, websites and call-centres), the Group’s brands propose unique holiday experiences in well-equipped sites in attractive locations, notably state-of-the-art aquatic parks, and excellent quality of service.
EUROPEAN CAMPING GROUP CEO, Alain CALMÉ, announced: “The Group’s results reflect the quality of our holiday solutions. We aim to continue offering European families mobile-home holidays across all of the tourist destinations in Europe and further enhance our customer experience with a fastgrowing range of restaurant – entertainment services – activities.”.
EUROPEAN CAMPING GROUP CFO, Philippe de TRÉMIOLLES, added: “EUROPEAN CAMPING GROUP’s steady expansion demonstrates our platform’s capacity to generate recurrent profitable growth and highlights the pertinence of our strategy implemented within group entities and with our partners. We intend to confirm our status as a key player, by ensuring that we are able to seize upon investment opportunities in our market”.
In this regard, the group also secured EUR 315 million of financing in 2017 to ensure its future development.
