Activities in Asia
Vietnam serves Vietnam!
“Around 100 million inhabitants live here, the economy grows by around six to seven percent a year and over 40 percent of the population is called Nguyen by surname” – with these words Ulrich Dosch, Business Development Manager of Kurtz Ersa in Asia, describes Vietnam in one sentence. Due to the highly dynamic development in local electronics production and especially at the request of its customers, Kurtz Ersa founded its own subsidiary in Ho Chi Minh City on December 03, 2018, which has been growing continuously ever since.
Close business relations have been maintained for many years with the major EMS providers (EMS stands for Electronics Manufacturing Services) such as Samsung, Jabil and Foxconn, which operate huge production sites in Vietnam. But also to the state-owned companies that have a high demand for Ersa technology. There is also an increasing demand for products and solutions in the plastics processing industry. Here, for example, suppliers from the sports shoe industry are being supported. Customers greatly appreciate having contacts in the immediate vicinity of their own locations who offer a 24/7 service in the local language.
Huge interest in new technologies
Other customer benefits include local spare parts supply, invoicing in Vietnamese currency and visa-free entry. In addition, the interest in Vietnam in regular information on new technologies and the associated higher productivity in soldering technology is enormous.
For this reason, Kurtz Ersa Asia, in cooperation with local representatives, regularly organizes training courses, technology days or information events such as the “Soldering Technology Convention”. Ulrich Dosch adds: “Our Application Center, which provides our customers with technologies and solutions for current trends on around 500 m2, is also very well received – here you can respond directly to the ideas and wishes of our customers at the machine, a real plus point for us!
