ASIA PACIFIC: Thielmann strengthens market position

6th June 2019

Switzerland-headquartered THIELMANN, one of the world's leading manufacturers of stainless steel containers, as part of its global expansion plans has established a permanent presence in the Asia Pacific area.

This move has allowed the company to provide better support for its customers across a wide and diverse range of industries, whilst at the same time tapping into the growth opportunity of the fast expanding local economy. “Asia Pacific is a market with high growth potential, so naturally, it was one of our first priorities in our global expansion strategy, to enter this growing and lucrative market." said the company’s CEO Bernd Loeser.

Alex Maxwell, Asia Pacific business development director at THIELMANN has already established a permanent team across the region and has personnel based in Shanghai, Bangkok and Singapore, where he is currently based. Maxwell heads up the team and is responsible for all aspects of customer growth and account management. He brings with him over 20 years of experience from Asian Pacific markets, having previously worked in healthcare and supply chain industries. He commented: “This is an important strategic next step for THIELMANN as we look to build on our existing brand presence in Asia”. www.thielmann.com
