Unisys Espana SA reports turnover for 1988 at over $244m, a 19.6% increase on 1987. Of that figure $222.4m came from the national market, while export (of Convergent B-series computers made since last June in Unisys’ new Barcelona plant, and printers manufactured for Unisys by Fujitsu at its Malaga plant) turned over $21m. The company says that the most important growth has been in distributed departmental mini and microcomputer systems, but demand for mainframes also increased 12% due, the company claims, to launch of the new new 2200/400 and 2200/600 the end of September. The services division increased turnover by 28%. In addition to the new plant at Barcelona, Unisys also opened an international sales office in Madrid last year and increased staff by 14% to 704. Activities this year include a contract with the Department of Employment for computer systems worth $82,000.
