Prysmian, $180 million in investment and R&D in Brazil over 2009-2010
November 10, 2009Tuesday, Nov 10, 2009
Prysmian has presented its development plans for Brazil during the Business Mission to Brazil organised by the Italian government, Confindustria (Italian confederation of industry), ICE (Italian foreign trade board) and ABI (Italian banking association). The Group will have invested some $180 million in Brazil over the period 2009–2010, which, combined with investments made in 2007-2008, takes the total to around $270 million in the past few years, in this strategic country for the Group’s worldwide growth. In the wake of the crisis-driven downturn in 2009, the objective is to increase sales in South America by around 25% in the period 2010-2011. The Group is particularly anticipating this business recovery on the basis of the effects of the growth-acceleration plan (PAC) launched by the Brazilian government for new infrastructure development and on its entry into the flexible pipes market for offshore oil extraction, thanks to its partnership with Petrobras.
