Turck is continuing its globalisation course with the founding of its own subsidiary in Sweden. Since 1 April 2023, the automation specialist has been officially trading as Turck AB, based in Jonsered near Gothenburg. Until now, Turck was represented in the Scandinavian country by its own sales office. Together with his seven employees, managing director José Ramalho looks after local and international customers from many industries such as machine and plant engineering, intralogistics and pharmaceuticals/biotech.
“Sweden is a strategically important market for Turck with well-known customers. With our own subsidiary, we have now created the prerequisite to be able to serve these customers even better than before,” Ramalho comments on the new establishment. Christian Wolf, managing director of Turck Holding, is also pleased about the new subsidiary. “Up to now, we have been working the Swedish market through our sales office and have been able to grow continuously. Our thanks for this go to our Swedish colleagues, and especially to José Romalho, who has been steadily increasing our market success there since 2017 and will also lead the new subsidiary. With the foundation of Turck AB, we not only underline the importance of the Swedish market for Turck, but also strengthen our position with customers.”
