| Bouygues Says First Guarter Sales Up 10 Percent The construction and telecoms Bouygues group's consolidated sales for the first quarter of 2006 amounted to €5.2 billion, 10% higher than the same period last year. Bouygues Construction sales were boosted by France's buoyant construction market and the development of the company's electrical contracting and maintenance subsidiary Etde. Bouygues Immobilier sales were down slightly due to the completion of several office projects, which had lifted 2005 first quarter sales considerably. The trend in first quarter sales in the construction businesses is not representative of the outlook for the year as a whole. Commercial activity in these businesses remained strong in the first three months of 2006. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
