Papoutsanis sees improved profitability and double-digit turnover growth for 2026

Papoutsanis’s management expects double-digit revenue growth and a further improvement in profitability for the full year 2026.

This outlook is based on new partnerships and the further expansion of existing collaborations, the continued strengthening of branded products, as well as developments in the European manufacturing landscape. In particular, reduced production by other European companies is creating opportunities and has already led to new partnerships for Papoutsanis in the private label and soap base categories.

However, the management of the listed company does not overlook current developments in the Middle East, which are already impacting energy costs, transportation expenses, and raw material prices. In the event of further escalation, there could also be repercussions on raw material availability, overall demand, and tourism.

Papoutsanis has highlighted that its Research & Development department serves as a key driver of its business growth. Especially during periods of elevated raw material costs, the company mitigates related risks with the support of its R&D function, by redesigning—where feasible—its product portfolio to reduce production costs. In addition, it conducts sensitivity analyses of its financial performance to fluctuations in raw material prices.
