Lubner's Thoughts on the Coming Year

Gary Lubner, chief executive officer of Belron, predicted that the coming year will be challenging during an interview last week conducted with glassBYTEs.com™/AGRR magazine publisher Debra Levy in Philadelphia.

"Everywhere you look, and we're seeing this around the world, [there are] cost increases from everyone of our suppliers. Labor's going up. Fuel's going up," he said. "We do a lot of mobile. We do nearly 50,000 mobile jobs a week now … so I think it's going to be a challenging time."

He added, "Having said that, from a Belron point of view, because we're committed to this industry, we're going to continue investing-we're going to continue investing in people, training, tools, branding [and] developing our leaders, because these things don't last forever and we're going to be strong coming out of it."
