The company chose Brazil initially as a base for further expanding the market in South America. With a population of 160 million people at the time, Brazil was the largest and strongest growing market in Latin America in the mid-1990s with a turnover of 587 million deutschmarks in 1995.<ref>BSH Corporate Archives, A05-0019, inform 1996/1, page 4.</ref> Continental 2001 S/A was not only the leading home appliances manufacturer in Brazil for decades, it was also a strong brand. BHSG therefore acquired a majority share in Continental in 1994, a move that would decide the company's fate for the next 15 years.<ref>40 Jahre BSH – Eine Chronik, Munich 2007, page 80. Continental was sold again in 2009.</ref> | |||
