Bertel O. Steen says its Viking Fottøy subsidiary turned around to a profit of 26 million Norwegian kroner (€3.3m-$4.7m) last year from a loss of 22 million NOK in 2009. The turnover reached 340 million NOK (€43.1-$60.9m), of which almost 30 percent was represented by sales to sports retailers. The rest was taken up by specialty shoe shops.
