28 Apr 2021 --- Symrise Group has hailed a “dynamic start” to the business year and saw an organic increase of sales by 10.5 percent in the first quarter of 2021. Taking account of negative currency translation effects, sales rose by 3.5 percent to € 949.6 million (US$1.1 billion), compared to the prior-year period. In spite of the global coronavirus pandemic, all segments recorded strong demand and achieved high organic growth. Sales for the first quarter also reflected catch-up effects resulting from delivery backlogs caused by the cyber-attack in December.
