New Wave Group is a growth company that designs, acquires and develops brands and products. The Group will achieve synergies by coordinating design, purchasing, marketing, warehousing and distribution of its product range. To ensure good risk diversification, the Group will market its products in the corporate promo market and the retail market.
The Group is divided into three business areas: Corporate Promo, Sports & Leisure and Gifts & Home Furnishings. The products follow the business area but have separate sales teams for the different sales channels.
New Wave Group’s organisation is decentralised, with a high degree of independence and self-determination being delegated to company management. The objective is for the companies to be run in an entrepreneurial spirit, while at the same time enjoying the benefits of belonging to a large group of companies. The Group therefore consists of a large number of operational companies, some of which belong to sub-groups. Board meetings are held about three times a year in each company or sub-group. The composition of the Boards depends on the company’s direction and its stage of development. In addition to Group management, the expertise of MDs in “mature” companies is utilised on the Boards of local subsidiaries. The organisational model chosen by New Wave Group provides for effective benchmarking of profitability, tied-up capital and growth between companies, brands and markets.
