07/04/2016 COPA-DATA UK Ltd
The international software manufacturer COPA-DATA has expanded its sales network by adding new distributors in Asia and South America. The SOLUTION SISTEMAS corporation in Belo Horizonte, Brazil and PETROLEC in Hanoi, Vietnam will take over the national distribution of the automation software, zenon. Industry projects based on zenon are already running in both countries."The expansion of our sales activities in Brazil and Vietnam is a logical step. Both countries have great potential in the automation industry. Many of our internationally-oriented customers are already active in these countries. This has resulted in a multitude of exciting local projects. We take great pride in working with two local partners who are ambitious and well-equipped to support these new projects and have full confidence in them," says Thomas Punzenberger, COPA-DATA CEO.
The two new companies expand COPA-DATA's international sales network to 17 distributors worldwide. Together with the eleven subsidiaries, COPA-DATA's software solutions are being sold in over 50 countries. The sales network is also supported by over 160 Partner companies in the COPA-DATA Partner Community.
