The catamaran manufacturer Catana Group strengthens its industrial organisation and announces the creation of a hundred jobs within the next three years, in order to cope with a sharp rise of its activities. The group expects sales growth of nearly 40%. Catana has doubled its order book compared to 2016, and proposes delivery dates for 2018/2019. Since the launch of its development plan in 2014, Catana Group has created nearly 80 jobs in France: at its plant in Canet-en-Roussillon and at the outsourced factory in Marans (17), and plans to create an additional one hundred in the next three years.
