Birkenstock Boosts Production Capacity, Aiming for Global Expansion and Increased Sales

in Industry, Manufacturing

Birkenstock, the well-known footwear brand, has announced a significant investment aimed at doubling its production capacity within the next three years to cater to growing global demand. According to CFO Erik Massmann, the company allocated most of its 80 million euros ($86.6 million) capital expenditure for the year ending December 31 to enhance its manufacturing capabilities.

Recent upgrades at the company’s facilities in Portugal and Görlitz, Germany, have already contributed to an increase in units sold, supporting Birkenstock’s ability to meet rising demand, stated CEO Oliver Reichert during the company’s earnings call. Reichert acknowledged that these investments temporarily impacted the brand’s profit margins but emphasized the expected mid-term benefits, including qualitative growth across various regions and channels, along with improved production efficiency.

The expansion efforts have begun to yield financial results, with Birkenstock reporting a 26% increase in revenue year over year for the period ending December 31. This growth is attributed to the new production capacities and the introduction of new product categories. Reichert further highlighted the ambitious nature of the production expansion, describing it as “doubling of the whole thing” and a significant undertaking planned for completion over the next three years.

Birkenstock maintains its production within the European Union, owning six factories in Germany, including a new facility added in Pasewalk in 2023, and a component factory in Portugal. This approach allows the brand to ensure high-quality products and greater control over its production process. CEO Reichert also noted the benefits of sourcing most raw materials from Europe, emphasizing the reliability of the supply chain and adherence to strict quality, social, and environmental standards.

The company’s in-house production strategy is not only about maintaining product quality but also offers operational advantages, such as improved inventory management. Alexander Hoff, Birkenstock’s global VP for finance, highlighted the company’s operational strength on a January call, pointing out that inventory growth was half the rate of its revenue increase.
