“Having a local branch makes it far easier to extend our business in Korea as it allows us to intensify our strong design-in support for our customers and optimize the supply chain and service organization for customers’ series production. For this purpose, we have now installed local FAE support and will be continuously increasing the team size based on our expected strong business growth,” explains congatec Korea country manager Yoonsun Kim.

The main strategic lever of growth is the ability of the local organization to continuously deliver strong support services and on-time deliveries. Here, congatec Korea’s expansion strategy is supported by the ability to access FAE, R&D and RMA services from the Asian headquarter in Taiwan to provide resources quickly, efficiently and without time zone differences. Those engineers are already experienced in delivering support with German quality and will help to accelerate the growth strategy of congatec Korea.
