Essilor International reported revenue growth of +4.8%, including a +8% currency effect primarily from strong US$ sales in USA.

The report cites sales in North America and Europe, led by “stepped-up” consumer marketing campaigns and faster growth in the sun glasses and readers division as the major contributors to sales growth.

While specific sales figures for the Canadian market are not released, the report indicates Canadian growth in Rx sunglasses through independent ECPs was generated from marketing campaigns, particularly the “Perfect Pair” offer and new products, such as Eyezen™.

The nine-month year to date consolidated revenue for the global group is +8.4% excluding the positive currency effect.
