Whilst war is a dreadful thing and the armaments manufacturers are making money, we need to consider what opportunities there may be. For example, XFS are associated with a prefabricated housing business based on ecological products, the IPI-R7 concept allows for the rapid construction of two and three bedroomed apartments.
This also applies to the world in general where there is a housing shortage. Factories have been bombed out ox existence, we can help with the planning and reconstruction and manufacturing process
EU There are many opportunities within the EU, all the nations give large grants for new business start-up’s, these grants include the cost of building, the cost of labour, again the devil is in the detail. Spain for example will give up to 100% grants on approved manufacturing projects.
There is a big myth about China, how do they produce quality goods rapidly, yes they have a large labour force, most of these are on the farms, factory worker wages are similar to certain EU countries, it is not the cost of labour, China have heavily invested in plant and machinery, the EU has only just awakened to this fact, and are now looking for entrepreneurs, the Chinese are moving their attention to South America, where labour cost and taxation is competes favourably with China, the latest move has been in the footwear sector.
XFS are always looking at client opportunities
