  • Flexible production and a comprehensive product range comprising more than 100 unique products allow EuroChem to quickly adapt and maximise margins according to market demand.
  • Established distribution network in Russia’s Black Earth Region and the CIS, two of the world’s fastest-growing fertilizer markets.

Growth

EuroChem’s planned investment in Nitrogen, Phosphate and – mainly – Potash capacity should take its market share from 2.1% of nutrient capacity globally in 2012 to 3.0% in 2020.

Earnings’ strength
