11% increase of Komatsu Forest's net sales in 2014

The forest machine company Komatsu Forest had one of its most successful years during the fiscal year 2014. Net sales increased by almost 11% compared to the year before, reports lesprom.com.

Sales increased in several markets, such as North America, Australia, Scandinavia, Great Britain and France. However, decreases were recorded in the Russian market due to the political and economic reasons. “However, the company has been able to offset this decline since demand has been so strong in other markets,” says Ola Boström, head of marketing at Komatsu Forest.

Intense product development, manufacturing with focus on quality and a close customer relationship are the contributing success factors. In addition to equipment for the fully mechanized forestry enterprise, Komatsu Forest offers a range of service solutions that facilitate machine ownership. The outlook for 2015 appears to be good.
