Cardiva anticipates a year of growth. The Spanish company that manufactures and markets medical products estimates to increase its profit by 16.7% in 2023 compared to 2022, reaching €14 million, according to Carlos Ibares, Cardiva’s director of corporate strategy.

The company of Basque origin plans to close in 2023 with a turnover of more than eighty million euros, “in the low range”, according to Ibares. If this goal is achieved, Cardiva would increase its 2022 sales by €10 million, the year in which it had a turnover of €70 million.

The Bilbao company points out that the growth is due to the future of the traumatology division, a segment it entered at the end of last year, and the good results of the traditional divisions and operations carried out in recent months. In traumatology, Cardiva hopes to reach a market share of 15% in Spain in its first full year of activity.
