Food processing machinery orders in October 2010 clearly positive
15/12/2010 - In October, orders food processing machinery has increased by 39 percent over the previous month. This placed the foreign countries by 57 percent and domestic orders missed the previous month by 12 percent.


Foreign demand is again sharply
In the first ten months of 2010 were the orders by a total of 44.7 percent over the comparable period last year.
The orders from abroad in the period grew by 55.2 percent, while the euro countries have not as strong dynamics showed: The plus here was 26.2 percent over the previous year.

Dynamics within the country flattens out at the end
From the domestic order intake grew in the first ten months of 2010 by nearly 21 percent over the relatively high figure: Unlike in international business, the demand for food machinery remained in the crisis year of 2009 is very stable and thus developed from this strong position in 2010 with a very strong dynamics, which is now slowly abating.

The high rate of change in foreign orders will be distorted by low reference values upward. The upswing from abroad is not only due to the underlying effect. The turnover is slightly higher than in the previous year and will land by premiums yet to beating sales in November and December with a significant increase in rate of the positive zone.

The largest part of the food industry machinery had, however, in 2009 suffered from a crisis-related declines in orders, especially from Russia and USA and recorded significant losses of foreign business must.

The candy machinery manufacturers, most of which have well over 80 percent export share, were paradoxically not taken quite as much on the impact of the crisis. Not only was the industry with a backlog of orders from last year a good start to the year 2009 and for another, the manufacturer of confectionery machinery very wide set in the export business, so that lack of demand from the EU countries through active investment activity in the Middle East and East Asia could be partially compensated. Orders in hand at the time of December 2010, many companies already by mid 2011.

Overall, the companies have come through the crisis. Staff was held in 2009, partly in the current year, even up slightly. 2011 will see the participants of the meetings of the members in any case contrary to
