After a first quarter 2020/21 (from April 1 to June 30, 2020) down 5.8%, impacted by the circumstantial effects of the Covid-19 health crisis, activity resumed an upward trend during the summer with the reopening of points of sale and the continued good performance of digital sales. In this context, Bigben expects to achieve sales of between 270 M€ and 290 M€ (vs. 263.5 M€ as at 31 March 2020).
