German term

Handelslandschaft

German to English Bus/Financial Marketing
We are talking about a traditional company who has recovered its reputation among clients:

"Der monatelange Einsatz und die zahlreichen Gespräche mit unseren Kunden zeigten ihre Wirkung, das Vertrauen wuchs stetig und der Erfolg sorgte auch bei der übrigen Handelslandschaft für Begehrlichkeiten, die wir mit XXXX erfüllen konnten."

My problem is the final part of the sentence:

"und der Erfolg sorgte auch bei der übrigen Handelslandschaft für Begehrlichkeiten, die wir mit XXXXX erfüllen konnten."

First of all I am confused about the use of "sorgen" here.
What does the sentence mean? I have vague ideas but I am really lost with syntax here.

Thank you,
Flavio

Confusion I would like to understand the whole sentence, because I can't seem to relate "Begehrlichkeiten, die wir mit XXXXX erf�llen konnten."

Thank you for your help. It's quite urgent...

Hausger�te Dear Kim,

it's a brand of Hausger�te.
Emilie Oct 12, 2005:
Anyway,sorgen fuer here.. I'd say it's something like "led to" .
Kim Metzger Oct 12, 2005:
Flavio, can you tell us what sort of product XXXX represents? I'm sure it's a brand name, but is it a service?
