Grupo Correa, industrial competitiveness on a global level
The Secretary of State for Trade, Amparo López Senovilla, has highlighted the exporting nature of Burgos, emphasising the importance of leading companies such as Grupo Correa in the Spanish economy and their contribution to industrial competitiveness. "Industry in Castilla y León continues to gain competitiveness in international markets and its companies are committed to entering foreign markets in order to continue growing.

The attendees were also given a tour of Grupo Correa´s facilities, where they were able to see first-hand the technology and innovation applied to the manufacture of its machining centres, a benchmark in the field of industrial machinery both nationally and internationally.

Carmen Pinto, CEO and chief executive, stressed that the Correa Group is a world leader in machine tools: ‘we have shared our awareness of the current situation in international markets and we will maintain a direct and fluid relationship to inform the Secretary of State about the specific situation in the countries where we are present’.
