The German company Schmalz will establish its 31st location worldwide in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. "Vietnam is one of the fastest-growing economies in Asia. Numerous companies are setting up new factories there in order to expand their activities and their network in Asia," says Kurt Schmalz, Managing Director of Schmalz. "The country offers access to a broad customer base in the Southeast Asia region. With the new location, we can support our customers directly on site with our automation solutions."

"For Schmalz, the entire region is of great strategic importance for the future. We are therefore pleased to take this fact into account by establishing our own location," emphasises Kurt Schmalz.
