MADRID, 22 (EUROPA PRESS)
ACS, Ferrovial, Acciona, FCC, Sacyr, and OHLA, in that order, have positioned themselves in the top 50 construction companies with the most business abroad, according to the latest ranking by the American magazine ENR.
Florentino Pérez's multinational has taken first place after achieving foreign revenue totaling $46.716 billion (€40.278 billion) in 2024, representing almost 92% of its total turnover.
ACS thus moves from second place last year to lead the list, ahead of French companies Vinci and Bouygues, which generated revenues outside France of $45.23 billion and $31.08 billion (€39 billion and € ), respectively.
Following this is Ferrovial, which appears Dutch on the list because its headquarters are in the Netherlands, with $9.187 billion (€8 billion), in 12th place (down one spot); and Acciona, with $7.05 billion (€6 billion), in 15th place (up five spots).
In 27th place is FCC, having climbed two places, with $4.782 billion (€4.1 billion); in 34th place is Sacyr, two places ahead of a year ago, with $3.805 billion (€3.3 billion); and in 42nd place is OHLA, which climbed five places, to $2.894 billion (€2.5 billion).
Other smaller Spanish companies such as Aldesa (126), Comsa (155), San José (161) and Sener (163) have also entered the list, which includes the 250 largest construction and engineering companies in the world for their activity outside their borders.
Chinese companies in the sector, such as CSCEC, CRG, CRCC, and CCCG, consistently occupy the top positions in rankings based on global turnover, with the first of these companies reaching $270 billion (€233 billion).
However, all of them are very focused on their domestic market, with a small proportion of revenue from abroad. The most international is CCCG (China Communications Construction Group), which had a turnover of $26.102 billion (€22.5 billion) on a total revenue of $136 billion (€117 billion).
The report also includes the Spanish company Ayesa, as well as the public company Ineco, which reports to the Ministry of Transport, in the field of engineering assistance, both among the 20 largest non-US companies dedicated to this field.
