Tax return forms make good business

Standardised forms and cards maker Inform Lykos posted 12.7 million-euro turnover last year, 30% more than in 2001. The company is set to relocate to new headquarters in the Militari neighbourhood in the second half of the year, following a five million-euro investment. General manager Vicentiu Zorzolan said investments included both the acquisition of the premises, a former warehouse and its refurbishment. The old building where Inform Lykos was headquartered belongs to its former parent company RTC Group. The new premises will take up some 17,000 sqm, 15,000 sqm of which used for halls and 2,000 sqm for office space. Inform Lykos last year registered about 30% growth in real terms as compared to 2001, posting 12.7 million euro turnover compared with 9.7 million in 2001. “Growth was generally due to the new clients in the traditional sector, as well as to the investments made in new products and services,” Zorzolan said. The company’s clients include banks, state institutions, as well as various companies. Its main products are fiscal and non-fiscal forms, which account for some 40% of turnover, printer paper (10%), paper rolls for cash registers (10%), digital printing (20%), IT solutions and services (10%). Cards are still accounting for too little of the sales figures along with labels and tickets (10%). ZF
