The WITTMANN Group with a new agency in Morocco
Since the end of June, the WITTMANN Group has been represented in Morocco by SMARTINDUS. The agency is based in Tangier.
Due to the sound market development in Morocco over recent years, as well as the positive assessment by experts about the country’s potential for further growth, the WITTMANN Group has decided to intensify its activities in this market. With SMARTINDUS, an agency has been found which offers many years of market experience as well as an ideal organization for selling top-quality machines.
SMARTINDUS is based in Tangier in the northern part of Morocco, very close to the free trade area. Three SMARTINDUS associates are engaged full-time in selling WITTMANN products, and two additional associates of SMARTINDUS are responsible for after-sales service on a part-time basis.
In the Moroccan market, primarily technical know-how and local support are important for the products as such as well as for spare parts. SMARTINDUS is able to provide both the necessary workforce and storage capacity for this type of support.
The agency contract between SMARTINDUS and WITTMANN BATTENFELD France was signed on 21 June 2016.
Michael Wittmann, Managing Director of WITTMANN Kunststoffgeräte GmbH, sees the new agency in Morocco as a good opportunity to gain a stronger foothold in this interesting market: “I am confident that with SMARTINDUS we will establish our products in Morocco and make use of the opportunities this future growth market has to offer.”
