Solar module manufacturer Solitek expands its export markets

Vilnius-based solar module manufacturer Solitek in 2021 sales revenues increased by 54% and reach 14.8 million euros. This was mainly due to a third increase in exports to the Scandinavian markets and the growing popularity of premium products. Following its success in Scandinavia and the Benelux countries, the company is expanding its export markets. This year the company plans to strengthen its position in Italy and France. In 2021 Solitek already started to cooperate with American companies and this year will start exporting their modules to the United States.

Solitek’s sales increased significantly in Sweden (63%) ir Finland (11%), and total exports to Scandinavia rose by 34.15% in 2021, reaching 5.5 million Euros.

„Last year was a turning point for SoliTek when we further established ourselves in Europe as a reliable manufacturer of solar panels. We now supply 85% of our solar panels to EU countries. The European origin of our products is becoming an increasingly important advantage as Asian suppliers lose confidence. We are also following the recent changes in consumer – they are increasingly focused on the origin of the product, sustainability principles applied by the producer and so on. Therefore we have a lot of possibilities here“, says Julius Sakalauskas, CEO of SoliTek.
