Exporting agricultural gear boxes to Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Italy and Spain

Germany is by far the largest market for agricultural gearboxes in Europe, representing 70% of all EU5 imports, but only 1.5% of these imports originate in the DCs, revealing untapped potential in that nation for DC exporters (the same situation can be found in France and Italy, the next two biggest markets). The UK, on the other hand, is most likely to import gearbox parts from developing countries and its share of DC imports continues to grow. The greatest opportunities for DC exporters lie in directly approaching OEMs/wholesalers with gearboxes or their parts (especially gear wheels, power take-offs, clutches, hydraulics, valves and hoses), or selling gearbox parts in the aftermarket sector to companies specializing in overhauling gearboxes.
