ZVEI Business Cycle Report June 2025

After their first rebound for a long time in March, new orders in the German electro and digital industry have been on the rise in April 2025, too. Overall and not least thanks to bulk orders, they once again advanced by twelve percent (year over year). As well as in March, domestic bookings rose significantly more strongly than foreign orders in April. While the former soared by 23 percent, the latter merely picked up by three percent. In the first four months of this year taken together, new bookings were a good five percent up compared to a year earlier. Here, the performance of domestic and foreign orders has been more or less the same.
