In the 2015 annual general meeting, Suominen, a leading supplier of nonwovens for various applications, reported significant growth in net sales and profitability for 2014, driven by a revised strategy focused on profitable growth and an investment program. The company divested its flexible business, becoming entirely dedicated to nonwovens, and expanded operations in South America. Looking forward, Suominen aims for further growth in sales and operating profit in 2015, while emphasizing sustainability and strengthening customer and supplier relationships.
