Home markets. In the home markets, turnover fell in <strong>2002</strong> to € 606 million (2001: € 627 million).<br />

The Netherlands<br />

Nigeria<br />

In Europe, the main fall in turnover was in the Netherlands. Here, after the record year of 2001,<br />

volume mainly fell in the sand trading and dry earth moving segments. Weaker markets also meant<br />

that turnover was down in Germany and Scandinavia compared to 2001. The United Kingdom had a<br />

better year and Portugal performed at the same level as in 2001.<br />

Outside Europe, turnover in Mexico was well down on 2001 and the level of activity in the United States<br />

was stable. Home market Nigeria had a strong year as the result of a sizeable order for Chevron.<br />

There was no turnover in Brazil in <strong>2002</strong> and the activities there were wound down because of the<br />

poor market prospects in that country.<br />
