Krones held a Capital Market Day for analysts and institutional investors today in Neutraubling. Key topics comprised the company’s strategy and growth prospects together with the presentation of the medium-term targets for 2028.

Krones’ markets benefit from megatrends such as world population growth and the expanding middle class. The Executive Board explained how the company is responding to customer needs and seizing the opportunities presented by the stable growth of the food and beverage market. A key growth driver for Krones here consists of sustainability and related environmental and climate concerns. Demand from Krones customers is sharply increasing for machines and systems that save resources and reduce carbon emissions. The company occupies a leading position here, providing future-ready products with which Krones delivers on its vision of supplying customers with “Solutions beyond tomorrow”. Krones’ Executive Board illustrated this with specific examples of innovative products. The Executive Board also provided analysts and investors attending the Capital Market Day with a comprehensive briefing on the company’s activities with regard to digitalisation and the expansion of Krones’ global footprint.
