In 2023, dm’s after-tax profit significantly, almost doubled, while Müller’s increased by a fifth, while Rossmann’s showed a 15% decrease – the Pénzcentrum’s recent article points out.

After the initial impact of the pandemic, the decline was expected, but dm continues to perform well. The expansion of business networks is also continuous; Rossmann opened its 250th store in Hungary, while dm operates 262 and Müller 32 stores in Hungary.
