Customers' wishes are leading in this respect and customer satisfaction serves as the benchmark. The retail formats are also positioned and expanded in such a way as to ensure that growth opportunities are optimally utilised. Market share is increased and market leadership is strengthened in this way.


Net profit

Increasing net profit regardless of market conditions. Beter Bed Holding aims to achieve above-average growth and expansion of its leading market position, even in challenging market conditions. Customer satisfaction leading to like-for-like growth, expansion within existing formats, improving margins, and controlled development of expenses are the key drivers of net profit.
