This way he wishes to give a valuable contribution to the integration of PigTek and Fancom: “I see it as a personal challenge in the cooperation between Fancom and PigTek to lift the operational processes to a higher level so that the ultimate effect of the cooperation is bigger than each of the separate parties could ever achieve on its own. I am convinced that together we can strengthen our position in the market and that we can be of even better service to our customers”.
