Biesse S.p.A. (Italy) has collected orders for woodworking systems and machinery totalling 7 million USD during the IWF- International Woodworking Machinery and Furniture Supply Fair (Atlanta USA 23rd - 26th August 2006), and its immediate follow up. The orders value posted an increase of 16.7% compared to the 2004 edition. The biennial event has thus - in a geographical area that has always been considered strategic for the development and the growth of Biesse - shown excellent results for the group from Pesaro, in confirmation of the positive trend that has already been seen during the first 6 months of 2006. The results achieved by the local Biesse Subsidiary during the IWF is even more significant, in that it has been obtained in spite of continuing weakness of the USD against the EUR, and recent contrasting signs on the state of the North American economy.
