Result for the year 2013/14
JYSK GROUP has had the best year
ever. The development has been
driven by a sharp focus on four key
areas:
• A large investment in internal
training programmes.
• A significant rise in special
customer-oriented activities in our
stores.
• A marked increase in marketing
investments.
• A massive investment in
e-business and online activities.
Our financial year runs from September the 1st 2013 to
August the 31st 2014. The year's figures cover JYSK GROUP
only, which is the name we have given to our more than
2,200 JYSK/Dänisches Bettenlager stores. Other investments,
such as Bolia.com, ILVA and IDEmøbler, are not included.
