Ikon packs for Europe
JUNE 2005–Valley Forge (PA):Ikon has
released grand plans to launch in 10 new European cities by 2007 and up to 20
over the next seven years.
During this period, revenue from the
company’s European operations is expected to double from $500 million currently
to $1 billion.
Cathy Lewis, SVP of marketing and strategy, told
opi.net: “We aim to offer the same service in Europe as North America.
And it’s looking positive. Revenue growth in some of our European cities has
already risen by 10 per cent since the start of the year.
“Once we are
self-sustaining and reaching profitability in western Europe, we will then
assess whether to move into eastern Europe or Asia Pacific,” she added.
