Gardena closes 2025 with a decline in sales

Gardena concluded 2025 with a 6% decline in sales to SEK 11.493 bn (approx. €1.038 bn), according to parent company Husqvarna.

The decline followed a challenging year characterised by weak early demand in 2025, cautious retailer sentiment, and significant currency headwinds.

Despite strong robotic mower sales, lower irrigation product demand affected the overall result.

Key details regarding Gardena’s 2025 performance:

Total Year Result: Sales dropped 6% to SEK 11.493 bn, with results affected by both lower volumes and unfavorable exchange rates.

First Half 2025: Sales fell by 3% in the first half of the year, with organic sales down 1%.

Quarterly Results: The year started with an 8% drop in sales during the first quarter.

Product Performance: While robotic mowers saw growth, particularly with new boundary wire-free models, the key watering products segment suffered from cautious ordering by retail partners.

The German gardening market experienced a slight decline in 2025, with a 0.6% drop in volume. For 2026, the parent group is implementing cost-saving measures and focusing on high-potential segments, including new AI-driven robotic mowers.
