The Monaco-based group posted sales of EUR 692m in 2011 (2010: EUR 643m), of which it generated about 43% in France and Monaco. The rest was divided among various foreign markets. Body parts accounted for two-thirds of sales, with the remaining third generated by plastic parts for the engine compartment.
