Worp said Hyundai Heavy Industries Europe should see further growth. “However, due to the slow market conditions outside of Europe, we also expect that in 2017 Europe will be the region where all manufacturers will try to secure their business volumes and compensate for their slow sales elsewhere.

Worp succeeds J.C. Jung who returned to Korea for the position of chief officer forklift division within Hyundai Construction Equipment.
