SIBO USA, part of the Slovenia-based SIBO Group, experienced the full power of the U.S. market in 2025 and achieved one of the largest leaps in the company’s history.
In the USA, they have:
expanded from 1,100 m² to 17,500 m²,
grown from 12 to 34 employees,
increased from 10 to 30 production cells,
as part of a larger acquisition, added a tool shop,
achieved a record €7.5 million in revenue.
Most important, however, is the impact the U.S. facility had on the development of the entire group, as they carried out the first serial productions in the USA for the Briogeo brand (Wella), and in Slovenia, leveraged the acquired know-how to expand business with global customers – including the transfer of decorative Hot Stamping Technology and the setup of a new line for EBM bottles.
The year 2025 confirmed and strengthened their vision: a combination of strategic investments, technological excellence, capacity expansion, and a strong international presence as the path to the next phase of growth.
OUR GUESTS
From Washington, the discussion with Sibo USA Director Gregor Merkuz and SIBO GROUP CEO Dragan Gojkovic will be moderated by ASC President Sasha Mrak Hendrickson, MBA. The meeting is intended as a discussion with Q&A.
