Romania is Europe’s third-largest vacuum cleaner exporter, but national producer is facing closure
<p>Romania is the third largest exporter of vacuum cleaners in Europe and ranks seventh worldwide, accounting for 2.26% of all vacuum cleaners exported to other markets, <a href="https://www.zf.ro/companii/analiza-zf-vad-cifre-investitiile-productie-romania-ajuns-treilea-22665281?mc_cid=7db35781bc&amp;mc_eid=cd1f92f96c" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Ziarul Financiar</a> reported. The data provided by The Observatory of Economic Complexity (OEC) platform is for 2022 and is the most recent.</p>

<p>In Europe, Romania is surpassed in the top exporters by Germany (which has a market share of just over 10%) and Austria (3.31%), but globally there are big players in Asia and North America.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, the clear leader is China, which alone is responsible for almost half of all vacuum cleaner exports in the world.</p>

<p>The activity of the sole local producer, Electroarges, is close to reaching an end after its partner, Kaercher, decided to open its own factories.</p>
