Strong growth through innovation

The Bosch garden tools product range will experience double-digit growth in Europe in 2007 and will most likely grow considerably more strongly than the market. Even higher sales growth is expected in central Europe (Germany, Switzerland, Austria). 2006 was also a satisfactory year for Bosch. In spite of the slight decline in the European market for electric garden tools, sales worldwide rose by seven per cent to € 153 mio. In eastern Europe, Bosch notched up an increase in sales of more than 40 per cent, while in western Europe its sales grew by four per cent.
