The Liebherr Group has started the year 2023 with a positive order situation.
While there are still macroeconomic uncertainties about the duration and distribution of the expected decline in economic activity in Europe and how this will affect the group. The duration of broad price increases in many goods and services, and the scarcity of certain raw materials and labour requires preparation.
The same applies to bottlenecks in different supply chains that Liebherr is apart of. It is also unclear how fiscal and monetary policy measures will affect the Liebherr Group. Macroeconomically, however, lower inflation may reduce uncertainties and thus increase demand for the Group’s products and services. Following the successful previous business years, Liebherr expects further growth in turnover in 2023.
On Monday, 3 April 2023, the Liebherr Group publishes its current annual report. In addition to detailed figures, it contains a magazine section reviewing the past business year.
The Liebherr Group achieved a net income of €2 million in 2022. Operating results and the financial result decreased significantly compared to the previous year. The number of employees grew again in the 2022 business year. At the end of the year, the Liebherr Group had a total of 51,321 employees worldwide. Compared to the previous year, this constituted an increase of 1,710.
The Group recorded a pleasing increase in Africa as well as in the Near and Middle East, and turnover in Asia and Oceania was slightly above the previous year’s level.
