Artman prepares to launch sporty clothes for youth

"The new brand will be similar to House aimed at young people between 15-25 years old. However, it will not be competition for the House brand," said Artman's board member, Grzegorz Koterwa. The new network of stores, the name of which will be revealed in autumn, will offer sporting apparel. The first stores are to be opened within a year's time and will be financed from the company's own funds. By the end of this year, Artman hopes to see a net profit of zl.11 million, up from zl.6.6 million in 2006 and revenues of zl.270 million, up from zl.205.4 million. (Puls Biznesu, p. 12) A.K.
