Cameron Balloons' Export Activities and Market Share
Export Activities
Cameron Balloons exports about 85% of its products around the world. In 2004, 141 balloons were sold.
This means that Cameron Balloons produces, on average, a balloon every 2-3 days each year.
This total is approximately the same as 10 years ago but the difference is that balloons these days tend to be bigger. Increased size means that hot-air balloons can carry more people, have more detailed artwork and designs and also have more complicated patterns.
