Russian upswing marks busy periodNovember 2011

Q4 this year is turning out to be as busy as the period was last year, with projects underway in China, Korea, Russia, Europe, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, West Africa and the Gulf.

One to highlight is the marked upswing in projects in Russia this year, where growth prospects in 2012 are challenged but where the rate of change demands involvement. For example, the new Nestlé site in Vladimir region – its 14th local plant – is due to open by December. This is in an area that already has two Kraft Foods plants operational.
