The company was able to successfully meet the continuously increasing order backlogs despite a challenging sourcing situation, which resulted in the record turnover in the fourth quarter. "Our sales expectations were not only met, but even exceeded," says a pleased Volker Bibelhausen, spokesperson for the Executive Board and Chief Technology Officer, and looks optimistically into the future: "We are confident that the excellent order books will continue to give us a tailwind despite the tense situation on the energy markets." Overall, the growth of the internationally leading electrical engineering supplier thus reflects the continuing positive trend in the electrical engineering and automation industry.
