Fronius Solar Electronics Expands Its Operations to Accomodate US
Growth
(07.14.2006)
Fronius Solar Electronics USA is expanding its
operations in the United States due to strong growth. The company has
moved into a new custom-built, 20,000 square foot facility to
consolidate and streamline its customer service and warehouse shipping
capabilities.
In addition to the larger facility in Brighton,
Michigan, Fronius has hired two new engineers to provide enhanced
telephone and email technical support for their World Class Customer
Support program. The company is also adding an east coast regional sales
manager and a southwest regional sales manager. These new hires will
complement the company's expansion.
"We are improving our customer service
programs and our new facility in Brighton will enable Fronius to
warehouse more products and process customer orders more efficiently
with everything available in one convenient location," said Gord
Petroski, Director of Sales and Marketing. "We're planning ahead in
order to maintain our excellent customer support programs as we
grow." As part of the Fronius consolidation effort, the company
will be closing its Santa Barbara office.
Fronius Solar Electric USA is a world leader in power electronics and
has 60 years of experience in developing innovative power technology.
Fronius currently employs 35 people in the USA and 1700 worldwide.
