At the beginning of 2024, ACI achieved significant revenue growth and continues a positive trend in preparation for the upcoming season. "The Company's operations in the first quarter of this year were primarily marked by preparation for the upcoming season, both in terms of commercial conditions and relationships with business partners, as well as through the preparation of marinas in the investment and concession space maintenance segments. This is also reflected in the company's business results, so it is not surprising that business revenue increased by 11% compared to the same period last year. We achieve good results through continuous advancements in the field of nautical services and infrastructure, and in this quarter, we achieved them thanks to the increased revenue from the annual berth service. We believe that we are largely prepared for the upcoming period, and we enter the new season encouraged by the significant increase in business revenue already recorded in the first quarter," emphasized Kristijan Pavić, President of the Management Board of ACI d.d.
During the first quarter of this year, ACI invested 0.5 million euros in maintaining the quality and safety of its services for sailors, with a focus on the repair of anchoring systems in ACI marinas Rab, Skradin, and "Veljko Barbieri" in Slano.
