Export level nudges 90 percent – Asia and the Pacific overtake Europe
Although domestic sales started to revive, KBA’s export level hit a historic high of 88.5 percent (2009: 84.5 percent). But with economies in southern Europe and other parts of the EU continuing to struggle, the proportion of group sales generated in Europe (excluding Germany) dropped to 28.5 percent, well below the historic average of 50 percent-plus.
