A 26 percent jump in sales in North America helped Johnson Health Tech record a 20 percent increase in total revenues for the third quarter ended Sept. 30. The company attributed the increase to continued investments in sales support, marketing and product development.
Sales in the commercial segment rose by 33.5 percent, much of which came from a very good performance for the Matrix Fitness product line, with Johnson singling out the T7xe treadmill and the G7 strength machine in particular. Other brands manufactured by Johnson include Vision Fitness, Horizon Fitness and Livestrong Fitness.
The retail division did well too, with a 24 percent increase in North America and a 20 percent jump globally. The company said that its new elliptical and treadmill product platforms were well-received.
