**Rocester, UK -** Construction equipment giant JCB, owned by the Bamford family, has reported an increase in profits for the past year, driven by robust sales in the United States. The company’s success in the American market effectively compensated for the loss of exports to Russia and sluggish demand in the UK.
The company’s financial performance was boosted by strong demand for JCB’s machinery in the US, particularly in the construction and infrastructure sectors. This positive trend helped offset the negative impact of the suspension of exports to Russia following the invasion of Ukraine, as well as a downturn in demand within the UK market.
Despite the challenges faced in certain regions, JCB’s overall performance remains strong, demonstrating the company’s resilience and ability to navigate changing market conditions.
