Kvaser continues business expansion with a Hong Kong office to support its sales and technical associate network in Asia.

Kvaser AB has opened a sales office in Hong Kong to provide enhanced sales support to the companyโ€™s partner network in the Asia-Pacific region. The Hong Kong office complements Kvaserโ€™s existing office in Shanghai, China. With warehousing facilities, Kvaser Hong Kong can import and export directly, providing faster shipping and logistics convenience.

Commented Lars-Berno Fredriksson, President of Kvaser AB:

โ€œThis development enables us to provide closer and more effective support to Kvaserโ€™s Asia-Pacific Qualified Sales Representatives and Technical Associates, outside China. Headed by Derek Sum, who has worked for Kvaser for many years, I have no doubt that Kvaser Hong Kong will prove of great value to customers in the region.โ€

Derek Sum, previously technical support lead for Kvaser China, heads the new business, whilst Gareth Zheng takes over the role of multi-purpose support engineer, reporting to both Derek Sum and Cindy Liu, managing director of Kvaser China. 

โ€œOpening an office in Hong Kong underscores Kvaserโ€™s commitment to our partners and customers in the region,โ€ said Derek Sum. โ€œThe trend towards automotive electrification and autonomy, as well as increased automation and autonomous operation in the industrial sector, continue to drive many new opportunities for CAN, which weโ€™ll be in a better position to pursue.โ€
