Nordfab Ducting has expanded its manufacturing
and production capacity at its facility in Leeds,
England, which the company
claims will help to provide faster delivery to customers in the United Kingdom.
To promote the expanded capacity and introduce Nordfab products to prospective
customers, the company teamed members of its U.S. and Swedish sales force with
its British sales team in a weeklong blitz to call on nearly 250 sales
prospects.
“Economic conditions are slowing sales and growth
at many businesses around the world, but Nordfab Ducting is continuing to grow
and expand,” said Tom Ballus, Nordfab division manager. “Our U.K. facility
recently invested in a new plasma welder, a bend machine and tooling jigs,
advancements that allow us to offer our British customers high-quality,
clamp-together ducting in the sizes most commonly requested - and at
competitive prices. And with the help of our U.S.
and Swedish sales forces, we were able to promote these improvements to
customers throughout the United
Kingdom with a highly successful promotional
campaign.”
Nordfab held the international sales blitz May
11-15 in the United Kingdom,
pairing eight salesmen from the United States
with 10 sales representatives from the United
Kingdom and Sweden.
“By
having the salesmen from our U.S. and Swedish facilities participate in the
sales blitz and supplement our U.K. sales force, we were able to visit the same
number of customers in one week that we could normally see in six months or a
year,” said Darren Wood, finance manager for Nordfab Ducting’s U.K. operations.
