Ekosystem looks to Asia and US in expansion drive

Desio, Italy – Italian machinery maker Ekosystem wants to expand sales into Asia and North America, and is looking for agents.

Marketing manager Marta Romano, speaking in a telephone interview, said her company has recently hired Hassan Dannoura. He is its sales representative for the Middle East and North Africa. 'We are very happy to have him with us in the team,' she said. 'He is the right person with extensive experience in the field.'

Dannoura replaces Gilberto Iorio, who left the company in July 2017 but continued to work with the firm until he passed away in February.

Ekosystem wants to strengthen its team north of Milan with a technologist and a sales director, Romano added.

The company is also planning to attend PU China and UTECH North America for the first time later this year. 'We are going to PU China to meet our customers in the region and to try to grow our sales there,' she said.

'We are interested in North America, we believe that there is a market for our machines in the region and we would like to find a distributor or agent to help us there,' Romano added.
