The dosing technology specialist from Töging is now represented in Asia with a total of four branches and can thus fully serve this broad market. After nine successful years in mainland China, with headquarters in Shanghai (2013) and a branch office in Dongguan in southern China (2018), the decision to open a third Chinese location was quite easy. Hong Kong’s international reputation and central location within Asia simplifies access to other market-relevant regions such as Taiwan, Japan and Korea.

The new subsidiary will be headed by the long-standing Managing Director of Viscotec Shanghai, Markus Schultz, who will manage the business of the new subsidiary from Hong Kong. The management of Viscotec Shanghai will be gradually transferred to the local Operations Manager Jizong Zhou and the Sales Manager Peng Gao. “I am pleased that we can hand over greater responsibility to our local employees. We want to show appreciation for the Chinese mentality and self-image, in order to align our relationships in the long term,” says Franz Kamhuber, Commercial Managing Director of the parent company and member of the Executive Board of the two subsidiaries.
