The strategic targets for the Winter Sports Equipment business are:
• to create the most efficient and flexible industrial network in the industry, enabling cost leadership
• to bring innovative products to market and offer continuously better consumer solutions for winter sports enthusiasts at every level
• to invest in and enforce the position of the two strongest brands in the industry through Salomon's and Atomic's unique characteristics and market positioning
