B-Tech International has widened its reach across the globe by opening a new facility in Vietnam.
The Hanoi operation supplements its work in Hong Kong and China to aid in the development, production and distribution of B-Tech’s world recognised mounting solutions.
B-Tech, which is headquartered in Daventry, UK, also has centres in Belgium, Germany, Spain and Dubai.
With its growing networks, B-Tech is better able to manufacture and distribute its products more quickly and at a lower cost.
To make the most of its growing number of branches around the world the company has restructured its senior team.
Mark Walker has been promoted to Business Development Manager across B-Tech’s group of companies.
Having worked at B-Tech for almost a decade, Mark’s step-up reflects his knowledge of the company’s range of products, emerging markets and AV industry in general.
Now working closely with Managing Director Matthew Bennett, Mark’s experience provides valuable knowledge to multiple areas of the business, including product development and key account management.
Other staff with new roles include Sean Murphy who has been appointed Area Sales Manager for the South and South East of England.
Having spent several years working as part of the internal sales and technical support team, customers who were previously familiar with Sean’s voice will now be able to put a face to the name, as he takes his wealth of knowledge out on the road.
Matt Bennett, MD of B-Tech, said: “Our expansion into new countries helps us remain well placed to tap in to new and emerging markets.
“Our Vietnam facility will be used for product development, shipping and distribution with the intention that it will grow.
“It also means that a new structure was required, so Mark Walker and Sean Murphy have new roles to help us in our development.
“We are now holding more stock at our subsidiaries and supplying customers directly from those offices.
“This significantly reduces shipping costs, speeds up delivery times and allows all invoicing to be done in local currency.
“We have adopted this practice across Europe and the Far East.
“Already this year we have seen incredibly positive reactions at various trade shows to our products and will continue to exhibit around the world.”
Also within the company Nick Spencer has been promoted to Marketing Manager, Gary Purton is now Product Design Manager and Tom Bennett is Product Development Co-ordinator.
