Austria's top economic news - March 18

Lingerie maker Wolford said its net profit grew to EUR 8.9m in the first three quarters of fiscal 2010/11 from EUR 4.6m a year earlier. Sales rose 6.6% to EUR 120m. The results were boosted by the company's consequent cost reduction and efficiency increase measures, CEO Holger Dahmen said. Wolford projects a rise in sales and a considerable improvement in the earnings for full 2009/10.
