GEA receives major dairy processing orders worth more than EUR 60m

Düsseldorf, July 21, 2014 – Dusseldorf-based engineering group GEA received various major orders from the dairy processing industry in the second quarter of 2014. The orders, under which GEA will in particular be supplying and installing equipment for the production of dairy powder, total more than EUR 60 million and were placed by customers in North America and Western Europe. The orders will mainly be executed in 2015 and 2016.
