Brazil: Votorantim Industrial has reported that its revenue rose by 7% in 2014 to US$9.3bn from US$8.74bn in 2013. Net profit rose to US$600m from US$79.2m. The cement, metals, steel, energy, pulp and agribusiness group attributed the result to high prices in most of its businesses.

Votorantim Cimentos, its cement arm, was responsible for the largest portion of consolidated income. It saw sales volumes decline slightly to 37.1Mt/yr in 2014. Despite this, net revenue grew by 5% year-on-year to US$4.34bn due to higher prices. Notably, its North American operation recorded a rise in sales volume and revenue, driven by the recovery of the US economy.
