International Sales Meeting
Global meeting at Ersa
Sales partners and sales companies from all over the world at the “International Sales Meeting” in Wertheim
From 10 to 13 October, Ersa as Europe’s largest manufacturer and market-leader in many areas of soldering technology invited its world-wide sales organisation to the “International Sales Meeting” in Wertheim. From Scandinavia to Australia and from Chile to Japan, around 80 international sales partners took the invitation to the Ersa headquarters by the River Main. Likewise, representatives of the Kurtz Ersa branches from China, France, Mexico and the USA were present.
“Festival of Innovations” is being continued
With a dense and attractive programme on three days, the specialist in electronics production equipment presented new machines and systems from the areas of manual welding, rework, wave, reflow and selective soldering as well as template printers, the latter also being tested extensively in “hands-on sessions”.
Alongside information on the latest technological developments, there was agreement on joint strategies, in order to be able to continue to offer the customers the best solutions. And a clear signal went out to all those present – the successful Ersa “Festival of Innovations” is being continued unbroken in 2017.
700 machines und 200 rework systems delivered
For their outstanding cooperation around the world, all the sales partners were given their quite personal Ersa Partner Certificate as part of a festive evening event. There was also a Finnish-German anniversary to celebrate: for 30 years now, Ekval Oy near Helsinki has been a sales partner for Ersa GmbH, for which the Ersa Area Sales Manager responsible for Finland, Tobias van Rossem, handed a shake-hands figure to the Ekval Product Manager Pekka Saastamoinen.
“Ersa is turning 95 this year – and is more active than ever before. By the end of the year, we will produce and deliver way more than 700 machines and 200 rework systems – which we owe to a combined global team performance, with which we are on the best path to a further distinct increase in turnover in 2016 “, said Ersa Overall Head of Sales Rainer Krauss. Despite extensive “day work”, the international Ersa family still had enough energy in the evening to celebrate together. In the end, everyone was happy about a very successful event and is now looking forward to the next appointment, which has already been set for 2017.
