Iran – MMK: Into the future together
With our worldwide distribution network, we are able to offer our customers strategic advantages in addition to high supply security and the ability to react quickly.
We sell either directly through our overseas team or through internationally recognized cartonboard traders and/or cartonboard agents. In Iran, we have won a reliable distribution partner in our joint venture with Heinzel Sales. The company is on location to react quickly and knows the market well.
When the UN/EU sanctions against Iran were partially lifted in January 2016, we joined Heinzel Sales and took the opportunity to gradually regain our past market position. In this context we issued an invitation to a joint event in the Austrian embassy at the end of October 2016. Around 60 interested representatives of the printing industry, buyers, traders, and end customers took us up on our offer and attended. For us, the event was an excellent opportunity to exchange information with a broad customer base on location. We also gained valuable insights into the current needs of the market that will allow us to continue offering tailor-made products and services. Herbert Glatz, Director of Technical Customer Services MMK, gave a talk presenting the latest technical developments in printing and converting, thereby further increasing the benefit to attendees. The feedback was quite approving and very positive.
Arnoud Snelleman, Director Business Unit MMK Overseas, Moncef Reisner,
COO Heinzel Sales, Franz Rappold, Board Member MMK, were in Iran
for the event.
We would like to thank Khashoyar Pourmohsen, Managing Director of the joint venture of Mayr-Melnhof Karton & Wilfried Heinzel Teheran, and his entire team for the professional organisation and wish them continued success in their market activities.
