WKK has been active on the French market since its founding in 1984, 40 years ago. To strengthen our presence in France and serve our French customers even better, we will soon open a branch in France. After previous expansions in Germany, Poland, Italy and China, the opening of a branch in France is the next step in the growth of the WKK Group. Edward Willems, co-founder of WKK, and William Crevel, incoming Commercial Branch Manager of WKK France S.A.S., signed William's contract today. William Crevel has extensive experience in commercial positions and until recently was commercial director of Crevel Distribution, his father's family business. We are pleased that he will now use his expertise in the French market for WKK.
Group Managing Director Gerald Ploeg: “Given our ambitions for further international growth, we are always looking for new opportunities to increase our market share in the various markets. The French market has a lot of potential, which is why we started looking at the possibilities for further expansion into this market - with this expansion, the opening of a new branch, as the logical next step. We are confident that we have found the right person in William Crevel to make WKK France a success.”
William will work intensively with our account manager for the French market, Vincent Ploegaert. Together they are committed to provide even better services for our existing and new French customers.
