However, according to market info service company PMR, it predicts that in the next few years the market is unlikely to re-establish the pace achieved before the crisis.
PMR expects that there will be double-figure growth in the industry from 2011 onwards. However, in the short term the market is unlikely to witness the rate achieved before the crisis.
