SAF-HOLLAND: Dubai business successfully started
– First deliveries from the new subsidiary
– Growth in the Middle East and North Africa accelerated
Luxembourg, October 17, 2011 – Successful start in Dubai: the local subsidiary of SAF-HOLLAND S.A., a leading supplier for the global truck and trailer industry, had already delivered the first parts to customers in the Middle East within a few weeks of being formally founded. Dubai will also supply SAF-HOLLAND replacement parts to North and Central Africa.
'The region of the Middle East and North and Central Africa is an important growth market for SAF-HOLLAND', said Alexander Geis, Head of the Aftermarket Business Unit. 'The quick acceptance of our new location proves that the founding of a subsidiary in Dubai was a step in the right direction with regard to our objective of boosting our international expansion.' SAF-HOLLAND's customers in the region benefit from shorter delivery times, better availability of parts and a simplified order process.
