Any strategy is only as good as the operational implementation it precedes. In this sense, 2019 was a confirmation of our fundamental orientation in several respects. Bühler Group’s business performance was stable in a volatile market environment.
Bühler Chief Technology Officer, Ian Roberts, explains industry’s role in creating a sustainable future and underlines the importance of collaboration and digitalization in reaching our new sustainability targets.
In 2019, Bühler delivered good performance at Group level. Turnover was stable, while order intake decreased. Bühler increased its investments into innovation to a record high, and its financial position remained strong, improving equity ratio.
In three examples, we show how we honor this promise to help our customers change the world for the better.
In 2019, Bühler delivered good performance at Group level, increasing the EBIT margin to 7.6% (prior year 7.1%). Turnover was stable at CHF 3.3 billion while order intake decreased by 4.6% to CHF 3.1 billion. The newly-formed Consumer Foods segment, which was created after the acquisition of the Haas Group, exceeded expectations and made a material contribution to the good Group results.
