Geneva, October 2012 - Effective September 1st, 2012, for Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia and October 1st, 2012, for Ukraine, DuPont Performance Polymers (DPP) has reinforced its collaboration with Biesterfeld Plastic by extending its distribution agreement into these four countries.
This extended collaboration will immediately benefit these markets, as they will be able to exploit local access to the industry-leading portfolio of resins and innovative solutions from DuPont, combined with the service expertise and supply-chain-solutions offered by Biesterfeld Plastic.
The new agreement is a natural extension of the two companies' long-standing partnership that was founded in 1987. It underlines the importance that both companies place on creating robust local supply capabilities coupled with technical expertise in these growing markets.
Rudy van Engen, Commercial and Channel Manager EMEA at DPP, explains: "Our channel partners are a key part of the continuing success and growth of DuPont in both existing and emerging markets. We are delighted that we have been able to extend our collaboration with Biesterfeld Plastic, which will ultimately give our customers local and better access to our products and services. The successful collaboration with our distributor over the last 25 years also shows that channel partnerships really do work and we are confident that we will both grow and strengthen our position in these markets."
DPP started its relationship with Biesterfeld Plastic in Germany in 1987. Since then it has been extended to include BeNeLux, France, Poland, Italy, Spain, Austria and CEE, Portugal, Greece, Switzerland, Turkey and now Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia and Ukraine.
Carsten Harms, Managing Director of Biesterfeld Plastic adds: "Our relationship with DuPont has grown steadily over the last 25 years as we both look to unlock the growth potential of new and established markets. This latest agreement further cements our relationship and brings our combined technological and supply capabilities to an ever increasing group of customers."
