HEPYC EXPANDS THEIR DISTRIBUTION TO INDIA, IRAN, RUSSIA AND SOUTH EAST ASIA

Their Export sales are expected to grow more than 30% in 2018.

Hepyc’s cutting tools can be acquired today in countries like India, Iran, Russia, Thailand and Malaysia thanks to the recent distribution agreements closed by the company located in Hernani in those high consumption markets. This will entail an increase in their Export sales of more than 30% in 2018.

Manufacturas Hepyc, a company specialized in the manufacturing of cutting tools, has closed new distribution agreements in countries like Russia, Iran, India, Malaysia and Thailand. This new step in the consolidation of its international presence will allow the company from Hernani to substantially increase the share of the export sales in the company’s total invoicing that currently represents 25%. More precisely, they expect that this year their export sales will grow over 30%.

Currently, Hepyc has a presence in more than 30 international markets in Europe, Latin America, North Africa, Middle East and Asia. The company has been selling for more than a decade in countries like France, Portugal, Italy, Turkey, Chile, Cuba, Morocco and Taiwan.

Last year, Hepyc focused their commercial efforts in securing their presence in markets where they have been present for 5 years or less like Colombia, Peru, Argentina and Paraguay. At the same time, with the help of the Global Lehian program from the Basque Government, they came up with a plan to explore the distribution of their products in countries with a big consumption in cutting tools located in Eastern Europe and Asia. Thanks to this plan, they closed the above mentioned agreements.

In recent years, Hepyc has invested in the development of new products, like their range of Microfinish machine taps with a technology that increases their productivity by more than 27%. These developments in design and engineering have been accompanied with investments in advanced automated production machinery, as well as the latest models in measurement instruments. This way, the company controls the whole production process.
