Strategy

The Dino Group’s strategy calls for continued growth by focusing on three key areas:

  • continuation of rapid organic growth in the number of stores,
  • continued growth in LFL sales revenue in the existing store network,
  • consistent improvement in profitability.

Continued fast organic growth in the number of stores

Under the strategy crafted in 2016 the Dino Polska Management Board intended to increase the number of its stores from 557 at the end of June 2016 to having more than 1,200 stores open by the end of 2020. The Dino Group has consistently pursued this objective by opening 123 new stores in 2016, 147 in 2017, 202 in 2018 and 243 in 2019, thereby increasing the selling area by 24.4%, 23.8%, 27.3% and 25.7%, respectively. As a result, the strategic objective was exceeded one year earlier than originally planned. At the end of 2019, the network consisted of 1,218 Dino stores. The Management Board of Dino Polska intends to maintain the high pace of growth of the selling area in Dino stores in subsequent years, too.

Considering the relatively small share of the Dino network in the value of the retail grocery market in Poland, the Management Board of Dino Polska plans to continue to leverage the network’s ability to grow organically in its current form by doing the following:

  • continuing to drive up its store density in its current areas of operation and
  • steadily expanding in new regions, which ultimately should have a similar saturation of Dino stores to other regions.

In the opinion of the Company’s Management Board, the attainment of this goal will be supported by the potential of the Polish market, still leveraged by the Company only to a small extent, extensive experience of Dino Polska’s management in selection of attractive locations and uniform store format which supports fast opening of new stores.

In the next few years the Dino Group intends to make additional investments supporting new openings, including:

  • strengthen the existing Dino Group expansion department responsible for the process of search for sites and new openings;
  • regularly secure sites for further development in existing and new regions;
  • build further distribution centers, assuming that one center is able to service approx. 350 stores;
  • develop the production capacities of the meat processing plant operated by Agro-Rydzyna through its expansion and replacement of the production lines with new ones, and commissioning another meat processing plant in a new location.

Continued delivery of LfL sales growth

Dino Polska anticipates that it will be able to continued growing LfL sales revenue in the current store network. For this purpose the Company will undertake efforts to increase the number of clients doing their shopping in Dino stores and the value of purchases per client.

Dino Polska is aware of the key trends contributing to a change in the lifestyle led by consumers and the customs concerning the purchases of groceries, also including the following:

  • looking for stores close to the place of residence and striving for convenience when making purchases;
  • demanding high quality and branded products; and
  • ever higher health awareness and greater interest in fresh and healthy food, including Polish products.

The model adopted by the Dino Group of having modern medium-sized supermarkets situated close to peoples’ place of residence is aligned to the consumer trends described above. The Company expects that this will continue to translate into the ability to sustain a high growth rate of opening new stores and to sustain a high pace of sales growth in the current store network (LfL) compared to the overall market.

The Company intends to continue an active product range policy, providing for constant adaptation of the Dino stores’ offering to customer expectations, which will evolve together with consumers’ increasing disposable income.

The Dino Group’s ability to utilize:

  • direct access to reputable domestic and regional producers of branded products,
  • its own Agro-Rydzyna meat processing plant and
  • efficient logistics network to make daily deliveries of fresh products as needed enables the Dino Group to derive benefit from these trends, which should support revenue growth in the current store network (LFL).

Continued improvement in profitability

In past years the Dino Group has generated long-lasting growth in its gross margin on sales and its EBITDA margin and it expects that it will be capable of improving its profitability by increasing the magnitude of its operations, the favorable nature of its business model and several strategic initiatives. They comprise:

  • benefits of scale leading to further gross margin growth due to the rapid store network expansion and the sales growth in the current store network, and consequently, the rapidly growing volume of purchased products, making it possible to enhance the commercial conditions with business partners;
  • greater cost effectiveness at the individual store level thanks to the systematically conducted actions to cut the costs of running a store;
  • operational leverage pushing up the EBITDA margin on account of relatively fixed costs rising more slowly than revenue;
  • planned investments to optimize the logistics network by opening further distribution centers, thereby shortening the supply routes and this should make it possible to further improve the cost effectiveness of transport; and
  • continuing the Dino Group’s effective and savings-minded marketing policy.

Dino Polska anticipates that all these strategic initiatives and characteristic attributes of its business model will contribute to further improvement in the Company and Dino Group’s profitability.
