Having reported continuous double digit sales growth rates since 1996, industrial freezing equipment specialist A. Heinen AG Anlagenbau (Fax: 49-4451 122-122) racked up another gain of 10% last year. "We anticipate doing it yet again in 2001," said Michael Hase, export manager.
Noting
Exports account for 60% of the Varel, Germany-based firm's revenues, with most shipments historically going to European countries. Last year, however, a good deal of business was transacted farther afield -- in countries including the USA, Turkey, Indonesia and Brazil.
Heinen's customer base is now poised to expand even more geographically, thanks to a cooperative marketing agreement with Stork Titan, the Holland-headquartered diversified food processing and packaging equipment outfit.
