BRP delivering Ski-Doos earlier this year to reduce dealer bottlenecks
– canadianbusiness.com
MONTREAL – The maker of Ski-Doo snowmobiles is delivering inventory to dealers a couple of weeks earlier this season to ensure customers have their products well ahead of the first snowfall, in what could be a more challenging winter market.
Dealers wanted earlier deliveries to better accommodate their buyers who placed orders last spring, BRP chief executive Jose Boisjoli said Friday during a conference call about its second-quarter financial results.
“We shipped earlier to help the dealer not to have the bottleneck in the shop,” Boisjoli said.
BRP (TSX:DOO) expects global snowmobile sales will be down a little this coming season as ongoing challenges in Russia and a weak Alberta economy more than offset strength in the United States and Western Europe.
Ski-Doo orders from Western Canadian dealers were significantly lower in the second quarter, contributing to a 20 to 25 per cent reduction in overall sales from the oil producing region in the second quarter.
The rest of Canada was “flattish” for a 10 per cent reduction in Canadian sales, Boisjoli told analysts…
