## 4 3 % OF FMC’S SALES TODAY ARE IN RAPIDLY DEVELOPING ECONOMIES 

By 2015 we expect 50 percent of our sales to come from rapidly developing economies (RDEs). This is predicated on growth trends that touch each of our businesses. The demand for food, fuel, fiber and feed from relatively fixed amounts of arable land will drive sales for Agricultural Products, while food ingredient, renewable energy requirements and pharmaceutical demand will advance Specialty Chemicals, and demand for specialty peroxygens and soda ash will expand our Industrial Chemicals footprint. 

These megatrends in Asia, Central and Eastern Europe, Russia, Turkey, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America – regions where FMC generally has a strong market presence – foretell the future of our global businesses across a large swath of the planet. 

We are focused on bringing together the vital talent in these RDEs to ensure customer intimacy, the right chemistries to meet local needs, and an enabling infrastructure that satisfies demand growth as rapidly as possible.
