In November 2015, Bizerba has inaugurated a new office in Singapore, thus further broadening its international site network. The aim is to build capacity to better serve the growing markets in Southeast Asia, South Korea, and Japan. The subsidiary‘s workforce will be taking care of the regional sales operations and provide local customer support right on location. ”Southeast Asia is becoming ever more relevant for our portfolio. We‘ve recently posted healthy growth rates in the retail and food processing segment as well as in the industry environment,” explains Andreas Wilhelm Kraut, Managing Director Bizerba. ”The plan is to gradually build our presence and profile in this economically thriving region, with special attention to Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines.” Further market development efforts for example in South Korea and Japan are in the pipeline.
