Spanish to English: Annual Report - Spanish company General field: Bus/Financial
Source text - Spanish A pesar de la incertidumbre reinante en el tejido empresarial y en el entorno del sector de autobuses y autocares en Europa, con una ligera recuperación a nivel del mercado español, pendiente de consolidación, ABC ve el futuro con relativo optimismo debido a la positiva evolución constatada en este año.
En España la evolución de ABC ha sido muy positiva debido a la apuesta por la mejora en el acercamiento y el servicio a los clientes, junto con la colaboración de los fabricantes de chasis y el gran esfuerzo realizado en ampliación y desarrollo de la gama de productos, lo que ha llevado a que la cuota de ABC en España sea del orden del 45%.
En Europa, ABC ha mantenido su volumen de actividad mejorando cuotas de participación, especialmente en los países del sur.
En el resto de las plantas productivas del grupo el crecimiento ha sido superior a las estimaciones realizadas.
ABC BRASIL, que es el proyecto que más rápidamente se ha recuperado de la crisis, ya ha superado los niveles de actividad que tenía antes de ésta, con un incremento superior al 60% con respecto al año anterior.
El crecimiento se ha debido tanto al mercado brasileño como a los mercados de exportación, destacando el mercado chileno donde el grupo va a terminar el año con una cuota superior al 50%.
El lanzamiento el año 2.009 del ABC PB, adaptado a las necesidades de los clientes latinoamericanos, ha sido fundamental en la consecución de estos logros.
Translation - English Despite the uncertainty reigning in the business world and in the bus and coach sector in Europe, with a slight recovery in the Spanish market that still needs to be solidified, ABC’s outlook is relatively optimistic, given the positive performance of the group this year.
In Spain, ABC’s performance has been very positive, due to the company’s decision to improve its customer relationships and service, together with the collaboration of the chassis manufacturers and the great effort made to expand and develop the company’s range of products, which have increased ABC’s market share in Spain to approximately 45%.
In Europe, ABC has maintained its volume of activity, improving market shares, especially in southern European countries.
In the rest of the group’s facilities, growth in 2010 was even greater than projected.
IRIZAR BRAZIL, which is the subsidiary which has recovered most quickly from the crisis, has already surpassed its pre-crisis levels of activity, with an increase in sales of more than 60% over the previous year.
This growth has come from both the Brazilian market as well as from export markets, especially the Chilean market, where the group is going to end the year with a market share of over 50%.
The launch in 2009 of the Irizar PB, adapted to the needs of Latin American customers, has been fundamental in achieving these goals.
