GLORY Increases Ownership ratio of Sitrade Italia
GLORY LTD.(“GLORY”) has increased its ownership ratio of Sitrade Italia S.p.A.(“Sitrade”), a subsidiary located in Italy, as follows:
1. Reason and outline of increase in ownership ratio
The GLORY Group is currently taking actions based on its 2020 Medium-Term Management Plan in order to make progress toward the goals of the Long-Term Vision 2028. One of the medium-term plan’s basic policies is “building foundations for realizing sustainable business management.” Strengthening the overseas sales infrastructure is a key strategy for accomplishing this goal and the GLORY Group is channeling substantial resources to initiatives for this purpose.
Since GLORY acquired 51% of the ownership of Sitrade in 2010 and Sitrade became a subsidiary of GLORY, utilizing Sitrade’s advanced solution capabilities and sales/maintenance capabilities, GLORY has been expanding the sales of Teller Cash Recycler (RZ/RBG series) which are one of the major product line, and creating the new market for products such as assisted service solution (S200) and cash management system for retailers (CASHINFINITY series) in Italian market.
GLORY has increased from 51.0% to 75.5% its ownership of Sitrade, and will accelerate its expansion of the business and further strengthen the operating foundations in the Italian market.
