Investments in Innovation Driving Growth

The Company attributed the sharp growth in sales and profits to its continued investment in innovative products, including seamless shapewear, a successful sock program with Nike, and bra programs developed for leading global brands.

Isaac Dabah, CEO of Delta Galil, stated: “In 2011, we continued to deliver a broader range of products to meet the needs of many of our industry’s best-known brands, leading to strong growth in both top-line and profitability. This is the 11th consecutive quarter of increased profits, and the 9th consecutive quarter of steady sales growth.” Mr. Dabah added that the improvement in results was accomplished despite increases in the price of cotton and cost of the finished products.

“The growth and expansion strategy of Delta Galil proved itself again in 2011,” Mr. Dabah continued. “Delta invested significant resources in research and development, in cooperation with the leading global brands, to grow sales to existing and new customers by developing innovative products and expanding the portfolio of products in the categories of shapewear, sportswear, bras and activewear. Our state-of-the-art technology, development expertise and ‘body-before-fabric’ philosophy allow us to deliver product advances that appeal to consumers and stand out in the market. We also continue to grow in the Israeli market through our new chain of Delta Kids, and continue to invest in expanding the retail business. In addition, we recently signed an international license agreement with the prestigious Kenneth Cole brands in the categories of intimate apparel and socks for men and women.”
