Jacuzzi Brands announced sales and operating increases for the first quarter of fiscal 2004 ended Dec. 31.
Sales for the bath products segment rose 18.2%, which the company attributed to the rollout of the Jacuzzi® whirlpool bath product line at Lowe's Home Improvement Warehouse home centers, higher bath sales in the United Kingdom and increased sales of Sundance® and Jacuzzi outdoor spas.
