Birkenstock invests in new Dresden footwear site
29/09/2025
The German footwear brand said the acquisition will support its capacity expansion for sandals, clogs and footbeds. Operations at the factory are scheduled to run until the end of the 2027 financial year. Birkenstock added that the purchase offers a faster and more cost-effective solution than building a new facility.
Alongside the announcement, the company issued a preliminary update on trading, forecasting fourth-quarter revenue of €520 million, up 14% year on year, or 18% on a constant currency basis. This would bring annual revenue to at least €2.09 billion, an increase of 15.9% year on year, or 17.5% on a constant currency basis, exceeding its prior guidance of 15% to 17%.
Birkenstock also confirmed it is exploring additional production opportunities within the European Union.
