  • ICA Gruppen to Acquire the Lithuanian Grocery Retail Chain IKI
    Press release Solna, December 23, 2016 ICA Gruppen to acquire the Lithuanian grocery retail chain IKI ICA Gruppen has signed an agreement to acquire UAB Palink, which operates the grocery retail business IKI, for a consideration of 213 million euro on a cash and debt free basis. The acquisition of IKI means that ICA Gruppen through Rimi Baltic will become the second largest player in the growing Lithuanian grocery retail market, from being the fourth largest currently. - Lithuania is the largest market in the Baltic region, but also the country in which Rimi Baltic has had the lowest market share. This implies a quick upscaling of the business and enables significant cost synergies. IKI is characterised by well-developed stores with a high service level and a broad assortment. Moreover, IKI’s store network is a good complement to Rimi’s existing store network. The acquisition benefits Rimi’s and IKI’s customers and is creating value for ICA Gruppen’s shareholders, says Per Strömberg, CEO of ICA Gruppen. UAB Palink is acquired for 213 million euro on a cash and debt free basis, corresponding to an EBITDA-multiple of approximately 6.1 times and an EBIT-multiple of approximately 11.6 times for the twelve months ending in September 2016. IKI is the second largest player in the Lithuanian grocery retail market with a market share of approximately 15 per cent during 2015 and a nationwide store network of approximately 230 stores. Rimi had a market share of approximately 8 per cent in Lithuania during 2015. IKI had net sales of 630 million euro, an EBITDA of 35 million euro and an EBIT of 18 million euro during the twelve months ending in September 2016.

  • Loyalty Begins When the Company Identifies Its Customers When It Sends Different
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Ecoforum Journal (University of Suceava, Romania) ECOFORUM [Volume 8, Issue 1(18), 2019] CONSUMER LOYALTY PROGRAMS IN RETAIL COMPANYS IN LITHUANIA M.IŠORAITĖ Vilniaus kolegija/University applied sciences, Lithuania, LT-08303 [email protected] Abstract Loyalty customer programs affects the organization's successful performance. Maintaining an existing user is financially more profitable and requires less effort than attracting a new one. Loyalty is the highest quality consumer satisfaction that occurs when the benefits of a product or service meet or exceed the consumer's expectations. Consumer loyalty is particularly important in areas where competition is fairly strong and the supply is standard. This area can be termed as the retail market. The customer loyalty program is designed to extend the life of existing customers by maintaining a long-term relationship with them. Key words: loyalty, consumer loyalty programs, consumer, retail market, retailer JEL Classification: M31, M39 I. INTRODUCTION Loyalty begins when the company identifies its customers when it sends different messages to different people when the user is rewarded not only for a easily measurable transaction but also for the time, presence, communication intensity. The absolute majority - 81% - of the surveyed Lithuanian residents believe that they are loyal customers. They use the same companies or specialist services for at least a year or two. Only a tenth of the respondents indicated they did not have any loyalty cards. Maxima has issued about 1.8 mln. loyalty cards, "Iki" - 1.5 mln., Rimi - 1 mln., Norfa - 0.751 mln.
