Strategy

Expand our business areas through:

The following are the cornerstones of the strategy that we have formulated for the K+S Group:

• Consolidation and selective expansion of our leading market positions: We want to enhance our market position in our established business sectors especially by intensified marketing of speciality products. This specialisation strategy gives us the opportunity to achieve greater value added.
• Enhancing efficiency and exploiting synergies: To ensure our lasting presence on world markets, we will continue to work consistently on further enhancing efficiency by exploiting our potential for synergies in production, in distribution as well as in logistics.
• Acquisitions and cooperation agreements: We also want to grow externally in our established business sectors. However, in doing so, we will not jeopardise the strong financial base of the K+S Group and will continue to proceed prudently.
