The Bossard Group is continuing to expand its presence in South East Asia. Malaysia forms a focal point of investment activity in this region of the world: Bossard has built a new distribution and administrative center, officially opened last week, in this emerging industrial nation.
The highly industrialized Federal State of Penang in the northwest of the country was selected as the site. The complex, built in the Penang Science Park in Bukit Minyak with an area of 9,000 m2, comprises a distribution center, which has a storage capacity of 800 tones, and an office area. In this new facility Bossard Malaysia created capacity for 80 employees.
Bossard Group CEO David Dean gave as reason for the investment in the Penang Science Park the market potential in this economically developed region, where many multinational industrial groups have settled. "Our new center in Malaysia provides the basis for continued growth in this region of the world. We can use it to approach more directly our customers and serve them even more efficiently", emphasizes David Dean. (source: Bossard)
