The Group generated a net income of USD 0.9 million for the financial year ended December 31, 2022.
JE Cleantech's robust performance in the financial year ended December 31, 2022 comes on the back of a strong economic recovery in Asia following the Covid-19 pandemic lockdowns. Its business momentum suggests a bright perspective for the coming years. During the financial year ended December 31, 2022, JCSE completed 30 more orders and increased revenue by 26.2% to USD 13.9 million. The majority of JCSE's orders came from (i) Singapore which accounted for 54.5% of JCSE's revenue, and revenue contributed from this region increased by 57.4%; and (ii) Thailand which accounted for 12.7% of JCSE's revenue, and revenue contributed from this region increased by 51.6%.
"The post-pandemic recovery has affected our business very positively and across our markets, we have seen an increase in demand, especially for our precision cleaning systems and centralized dishwashing systems," said Ms Hong Bee Yin, Founder and CEO of JCSE. "With many hospitality businesses gradually reaching their pre-pandemic peaks, we expect our centralized dishwashing systems to see even more demand."
Looking ahead, JCSE is expanding further into tech hardware and robotics. "Automation and digitization are core priorities for us along with expanding our product range," elaborated Ms Hong. "We are also looking into overseas expansion, but we remain committed to Singapore as a priority market." The Company is planning to use its internal resources to facilitate aggressive growth in 2023.
Earlier this year, JCSE partnered with a Singaporean deep-tech manufacturer to co-develop an industry-revolutionizing cleaning robot. Along with expansion plans, JCSE is looking further to improve its environmental footprint, having already announced the installation of solar panels in its main facility earlier this year.
