Fielmann Group Boosts International Sales Growth in Q2/2026

Fielmann Group achieved a substantial increase in international sales growth in Q2/2026, rising from 1% in Q1 to 6% year-over-year. The company credits this to a stable Adjusted EBITDA margin and expanding store presence, with a focus on international markets like Spain and Poland. Fielmann Group recorded sales of €1.25bn in HY1/2026, marking a 2% increase over the previous year.

The company's growth strategy includes opening 33 more stores in the second half of 2026, aiming for 70 new locations this year. Enhanced labor market conditions have led to quadrupled applications and doubled hires for audiologists and opticians in Germany. AI-based refraction technology also supports service quality and efficiency.

Fielmann projects total consolidated sales growth of 5% to 7% for FY2026, anticipating revenues between €2.55bn and €2.60bn. Despite geopolitical and economic challenges, especially in Germany, the company stays on course with its growth forecasts.
