The Middle East has seen a 70% increase in the company's sales of commercial vehicle lubricants and industrial process fluids and greases.
Automotive and motorcyle products are Morris' focus in both the US and Scandinavia markets, with the latter targeting lubricants specifically designed for classic cars and motorcycles.
The company has signed agreements in Singapore and Turkey for some of their branded products to be manufactured under licence to speed up transit time.
Morris's international business director Stephen Dawe said, “Prospects look good for continued export growth, however, the only possible fly in the ointment is the strength of Sterling against the other major currencies, which is not helping British exporters.”
