Economy in the ILM district: buying purchase threatens companies!

Economy in the ILM district: buying purchase threatens companies!

Ilm-Kreis, Deutschland - In the past few months, the economy in the ILM district has been struggling with a serious problem: buying the purchase. Who reports in Thuringia that this domestic demand was identified as the greatest risk for the economical development. Both private end consumers and commercial customers hesitate to issue their funds, which presents many companies with challenges.

The Chamber of Commerce and Industry (IHK) therefore calls for political measures to boost investments and demand again. This weakness of demand has far -reaching consequences and makes the economic forecasts for the region appear worrying. A look at the current economic reports shows that there are also positive aspects, but the uncertainties predominate.

potential and challenges

The ILM-Kreis offers a lot of potential, which confirms the IHK Südthüringen. Despite the current difficulties, growth guarantees such as the industrial area of Erfurt Cross and the Technical University of Ilmenau are emphasized. These institutions provide positive impulses, especially in the service sector, where many companies report a better mood.

The economic survey of the IHK shows that almost 19% of the companies rate their business as good, while 49% state a customary situation. It should be emphasized that 80% of companies are planning investments, and a larger proportion than in other districts of Thuringia. The focus here is on replacement and modernization investments that are considered essential for the future.

economic climate indicators

The economic climate indicator has increased with 75.6 points, but remains below the threshold of 100 points that would signal an upswing. The decline in domestic demand is just as much a risk as the changing economic political framework and increasing energy prices. These topics are also highlighted in Thuringian Bogen, where the first signs of a upswing are reported. The foreign demand for goods from the ILM district increases, which is a bright spot.

However, companies can only benefit from these positive signals if the domestic demand is stabilized. The pressure on the financial situation is still great: 70% of the companies find them unproblematic, but 42% report on a deteriorated yield situation, and 43% observe returning inputs.

Overall, the ILM district shows that it has a good foundation, but needs a good knack for strengthening the economic framework. The IHK and the companies in the region have to work together to master the challenges and to carry optimism in the near future.
