The Company forecasts for 2017 that will reach the following:
- Sales revenue at the level between USD 1,20 billion and USD 1,30billion

- Competition in all major segments will remain similar to that of 2016,with no new significant market entrants.
- The group will continue enjoying favourable terms from its keysuppliers
