- “2011 ended on a positive note with continued significant growth and a strong result. Favorable production conditions in the fourth quarter allowed for a high level of production. It is difficult to assess the future of markets in 2012. While we continue to see a good range of new projects we are on our guard about the effects the debt crisis may have on construction and civil engineering in our markets”, says Peab’s CEO and President Jan Johansson.
