Despite the fact that the name "Volvo" conjures up more visions of soccer moms than of burly truck drivers, AB Volvo has parked its car business. The company is now a leading maker of trucks, buses, and construction equipment as well as marine (Volvo Penta), aircraft (Volvo Aero), and industrial engines. The company's most widely known business -- auto making -- was sold to US-based carmaker Ford Motor Company. The sale enabled Volvo to focus on its remaining units, particularly trucks. Its other interests include full control of the famous Mack Trucks brand in North America and Renault Trucks in Europe. To read the full description, subscribe now.

Competition

Competitive Landscape for AB Volvo
Demand for commercial, military, and private airplanes drives the aircraft parts industry. The profitability of individual companies depends on efficient operations and the ability to secure long-term contracts. Small companies can compete by specializing in high-end, low-volume, or hard-to-find parts, or in production of low-price commodity parts. Large companies have economies of scale in production and purchasing. The industry is labor-intensive: annual revenue per employee is about $200,000 at larger companies, $125,000 at smaller ones. To read the full description, subscribe now.
