Agr International Inc. establishes new regional sales and service centre in Mexico
Agr International has announced the opening of Agr Packaging Services, a new sales and service center located in Mexico. This new entity is a wholly owned subsidiary of Agr International (USA). Through this entity, Agr will manage all of the sales, parts supply, service and support operations for Agr equipment in Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean.
As the packaging markets in Mexico and the surrounding region continue to expand, Agr has recognised a significant growth in the demand for its quality management and process control equipment. This is evidenced by an ever expanding customer base in this region. The establishment of Agr Packaging Services is intended to meet this growing demand with a direct sales and service operation centrally located in the region that utilises factory-trained Agr personnel.
Sales and associated efforts will be handled by Mr. Carlos Gonzalez and Mrs. Marta de la Torre. Mr. Gonzalez brings with him extensive experience related to plastic production, specifically in container processing and package development. Mrs. Marta de la Torre, a long-time employee of Agr, has vast knowledge in glass container production, quality management and PET bottle manufacturing. Mr. Israel Hernandez will lead the service and support operations. He and staff of four service engineers are responsible for all installation, service, support and training related to Agr products within this region. All are factory trained and certified on Agr equipment. Mr. Hernandez brings a solid background and experience in preventive, corrective and predictive maintenance on high precision measurement equipment.
