In the first six months of 2023, goods worth 15.3 billion euros were exported from Styria. Domestic exports of goods thus rose by 6.2 percent<\/strong> from January to June compared to the previous year (2022: 14.4 billion euros). This is the highest value ever recorded for a first half-year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

“Given the more recent data for Austria as a whole, it can be assumed that the USA and other overseas destinations, especially in Asia, continued to gain importance as export markets for Styria in 2023. On the other hand, the mixed economic development, particularly in the Eurozone, already dampened the overall export momentum in the first half of the year, a trend that will unfortunately also impact the year as a whole. Nevertheless, a new export record for Styrian companies for 2023 seems to be within reach.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
