Managerial accounting MPO Fentres initially specialized in public and collective markets (professional/ major accounts, government, schools, municipalities and other communities). However, from 1995 onwards it developed its sales to individual consumers. The public market today accounts for about 60% of the company's turnover, while the (still growing) consumers' market accounts for the remaining 40%. There are 200 employees working for the company, and turnover is over 35 million (source: Internal figures 2010). Significant growth has occurred over the last decade. The company is constantly on the lookout for technical and technological innovations, both of which are well represented in its range of low thermal coefficient products. Further the high requirements of the company in terms of the quality of materials, assembly, and installation exceed the market standard. This allows the company to offer its customers products at the forefront of innovation, a key success factor in this industry. Incidentally, this is one of the four founding values of the company, together with perfectionism (the aim to do the best possible job), cheerfulness within the company, and honesty with all company's stakeholders (both employees and customers).
