Turnover jumped by 21.8 % (\u20ac 190 million) to \u20ac 1,059 million – compared to \u20ac 869 million in the previous year. Growth emanated from all regions and markets. In Germany, the largest market, turnover was up by 12 % to \u20ac 270 million. The EMEA region grew by 17 % to \u20ac 373 million in turnover. The Asia\/Pacific region put in even stronger growth of 25 % to \u20ac 269 million and the Americas by an impressive 57 % to \u20ac 147 million. The number of employees was up by 256 to 6446, mainly due to the expansion of the plants in Mexico, Romania and the USA. The number of employees in Germany remained almost constant (+ 0.5 %).<\/p>\n
“We have achieved our goals,” said Philip Harting, CEO of the HARTING Technology Group. A year ago, he had thought double-digit growth was possible. “We delivered.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
<\/p>\n
In addition to catch-up effects resulting from the Corona pandemic, the main growth drivers were the industrial transformation, advancing digitalisation and the development of energy-efficient production technologies and products.<\/p>\n
“We want to develop new high-performance technologies and solutions for the connectivity of the future to meet the challenges of decarbonisation, demographic change and energy efficiency,” as Philip Harting clarifies the technology group’s claim and aspirations. Connectivity is a basic technology for the transmission of data, signals and energy – without which sustainable production is not possible.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
<\/p>\n
Philip Harting sees the company as well positioned.<\/p>\n
“We will continue to focus on strengthening our global footprint.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

For example, the group invested in the expansion and new construction of its plants in Romania, the USA, Mexico and India, as well as in digitalisation and additional development capacities geared to strengthening its core business. Record investments of around \u20ac 80 million are also planned for 2022\/23.<\/p>\n
