International sales

Similar to Logistics, our International sales infrastructure is not a reportable business segment. Currently it includes our fully-owned Swiss-based trader EuroChem Trading GmbH (19 staff at the end of 2009), which is responsible for global sales outside CIS and North America, and a US-based trading company, EuroChem Trading USA Corp. (four staff), responsible for North American sales. These companies are primarily responsible for the sales of our product globally and revenues and costs of these companies are attributed to the Nitrogen and Phosphate segments.
