Malaysia continues to be the third-largest revenue contributor within South-East Asia for Germany’s Bosch Group, a leading global supplier of technology and services.
Total net sales in the country increased by 20% to RM2.9bil last year. This figure includes sales of non-consolidated companies and internal deliveries to other Bosch companies. Consolidated sales to third parties in the local market registered a slight dip compared to 2012, and came to RM485mil. This was mainly due to extraordinary effects such as increased austerity that cooled spending by consumers and businesses.
