All regions helped drive the Group's 10.3% organic growth, without exception. New markets such as Southeast Asia, China, Latin America and the Middle East enjoyed strong growth, while Europe and the USA delivered a very solid performance. India has also seen strong growth, thanks to the acquisition and successful integration of Sonarome.

All Robertet divisions contributed to growth in 2024, as follows:

  • Raw Materials accounted for 24.3% of sales, up 16.9%. This return to growth reflects the upturn in organic products, healthy sales in luxury fragrances and the impact of certain customers rebuilding their inventories after a low point in 2023.
  • Fragrances accounted for 39.4% of sales and saw growth of 16.4%. This remarkable performance was driven by the success of numerous niche fragrance brands around the world, in particular in the USA, China and Brazil.
  • Flavors represented 33.7% of sales, up 4.9%. This solid increase primarily reflects Sonarome's contribution in India and a strong interest in the natural products of our major international customers.

  • Health & Beauty accounted for 2.6% of sales, up 9.4% over the year after successfully restoring production capacity in the second half of 2024 and further developing its commercial presence in global markets for its flagship products.

Robertet has continued to deploy its strategy based on high value-added natural products, its conquest of new international markets and its sustainable development roadmap, which led it to receive a Platinum Ecovadis rating in 2024.

As mentioned when results for the first half of 2024 were reported, EBITDA growth for 2024 is expected to be higher than sales growth.

The 2024 annual results will be published on April 14, 2025, and will be followed by an analyst and investor conference held in Paris on the same day.

The 2024 annual financial report will be available on April 17, 2025 on our website.

We look forward to welcoming analysts and investors in Grasse on May 22, 2025 for a Capital Markets Day, the details of which will be announced in the coming weeks.
