The company has expanded its reach to over 170 countries and serves more than 15 million homes. Market performance data indicates Roborock’s strong positions in various countries, including being ranked number one in Turkey and Germany, and number two in the US in terms of sales, as well as leading in shipments in Korea and the Nordics for 2023.
Roborock’s financials reflect robust growth, with total revenue reaching 8.65 billion Yuan (approximately 1.22 billion USD) and net profit at 2.05 billion Yuan (around 288 million USD).
