✦ Synopsis
partly in order to support its planned expansion and partly because of relatively weak demand conditions in the home market. For the fiscal year to end-March 2002, KMML exported 1751 tonnes of TiO 2 pigment and for this year the company set itself an export sales target of 4500 tonnes. By the end of January 2003, the cumulative total exports for the fiscal year had reached 4000 tonnes, so the target for the full year should be comfortably exceeded. Export earnings are forecast to exceed Rup 300 M. KMML has been particularly successful in selling TiO 2 pigment to South Africa, South Korea, the United Kingdom, Italy and Sri Lanka.
