In the 2022 fiscal year, Liebherr recorded a turnover of € 812 million in its maritime cranes product segment. This represents a year-on-year increase of € 72 million or 9.7 %.

The global maritime goods handling market is experiencing an upswing. Turnover in the segment – broken down by product area – reflected the general industry trend in the maritime sector. Liebherr experienced a slightly decreased turnover in mobile harbour cranes compared to the previous year. A modest year-on-year increase in turnover was achieved in the ship cranes and offshore cranes product areas. Container cranes saw a positive increase thanks to substantial orders in the core markets.

A breakdown of turnover by region in the maritime cranes product segment reveals significant growth in North America and Africa, Near and Middle East in particular. This encouraging result was driven primarily by business in the USA, Ethiopia and Tanzania. The non-EU countries as well as Central and South America also recorded an increase in turnover. Conversely, Liebherr experienced a declined turnover in the EU, which can be attributed in particular to the tense economic situation. There was also a slight downturn in turnover in Asia and Oceania.
