“In addition to this, we have also taken an order worth SEK 5.7 million to be delivered during the fourth quarter. We also have many systems being tested by customers around the world that we have expectations of. We are pleased to report that Heliospectra follows the aggressive plan we set in terms of both sales and costs. Overall, we can conclude that Heliospectra is continuing to develop positively,” says Staffan Hillberg, CEO of Heliospectra AB.<\/p>\n
The fact that Heliospectra offers world-leading technology continues to be confirmed. Recently, two international reports were published that show that the market for LED lights for cultivation and intelligent greenhouses is expected to grow by 20 per cent every year until 2020. The use of medical marijuana is also continuing to increase in North America and is one of the fastest growing areas.<\/p>\n
“The indications from the outside world are positive and we remain on the offensive when it comes to sales and our presence in the most important markets. World leading technology in several rapidly expanding markets and strong principal owners is an advantageous combination,” notes Staffan Hillberg.<\/p>\n
