A famous chef<br />

Emeril Lagasse is a well-known chef who owns eleven<br />

restaurants in <strong>the</strong> United States. This partnership is a strong<br />

endorsement for <strong>the</strong> Group and guarantees <strong>the</strong> success<br />

of seven high-quality kitchen electrics products with a<br />

professional look: slow cooker, blender, fryer, pressure<br />

cooker, grill, breadmaker, pie & cake maker. Sales increased<br />

tenfold in 2011 through teleshopping. This partnership<br />

of choice also covers cookware and represented 8% of our<br />

Actifry, a Stateside star<br />

Following on from its success in<br />

Canada, Actifry is now gaining<br />

ground in <strong>the</strong> United States.<br />

Chosen by 40,000 families thanks<br />

to its nutritional benefits and its<br />

ease of use, it is featured in Oprah Magazine, which<br />

sponsors <strong>the</strong> Oprah Winfrey O You event, with<br />

demonstrations, competitions and online advertising on<br />

its Facebook and Twitter pages. All of this publicity, along<br />

with a TV ad campaign, gave sales a massive boost<br />

(+255% in 2011). More than 200 in-store<br />

demonstrations and a segmentation of <strong>the</strong> range by<br />

distribution channel completed <strong>the</strong> operation. The<br />

deployment of Actifry in all English-speaking markets,<br />

including Great Britain and Australia, has been<br />

enormously successful with sales increasing 4-fold<br />

between 2009 and 2011.<br />
