This growth in gross margin, spread across the Group's different sectors and over each quarter, is reinforced by Hopscotch's Sport activities, as well as in the Luxury Goods sector.
Building on its dynamism, the Group is accelerating its growth through acquisitions, and has announced the acquisition of the European communications group Interface Tourism, specialized in the promotion of tourist destinations and the art of living. Numerous synergies are expected to develop Interface Tourism's presence in new countries, leveraging Hopscotch's global network. The acquired group has around a hundred employees, will contribute more than 8M€ to the gross margin, and will be consolidated in 2024. This will take place at the end of the financial year.
HOPSCOTCH Groupe will publish its consolidated half-year result of 2023 on September 27 2023, after the market closes.
