BRD Sogelease, the leasing company of BRD Groupe SociA©tA© GA©nA©rale, expects contracts worth 50 million euros in 2003, up 66% since last year. “2002 was our first year of operations on the Romanian market. We practically had only nine months for our Romanian-based activities, as we became operational at the beginning of last March,” says Jean Paul Decrock, BRD Sogelease general manager. The company landed 600 leasing contracts last year, worth almost 30 million euros. “Fortunately, as BRD Groupe SociA©tA© GA©nA©rale is our sole shareholder, we were able to use their national network,” Decrock added.
