Vacon opens Croatian office

AC drives manufacturer Vacon has strengthened its foothold and ability to provide local support for its customers in the Adriatic area by opening a representative office in Zagreb, the capital of Croatia.

"

I think this was a good time for Vacon to establish an office in this region. There are many promising and expanding business sectors in Croatia such as the marine and offshore industry and many other industries where Vacon AC drives can help customers with cost and energy efficiency. In addition, Croatia's central location in the area gives us many good new growth possibilities and ability to locally support our customers," says Johann Goldfuss, managing director for Vacon's subsidiary in Austria.

Vacon is currently present in the Adriatic area via distributors. Now, the company's own presence in the area will strengthen the cooperation with its partners and give the company the possibility to take a bigger role, in large projects for example. 

"We aim to grow significantly faster than the market, and that means we will have to expand our activities to new areas and to new channels. This new office in Croatia will support this strategy and also strengthen Vacon's brand awareness in the Adriatic area," Goldfuss concluded.
