Demolition robot specialist Brokk has established a new subsidiary company in Switzerland, called Brokk Switzerland, that is intended to strengthen the company’s position in a market that it long has had a presence through partnership with a local distributor. The new company will go live on September 1, at which point it will take over the activities of its current partner Mertec Group, focussing on sales and service of the full range of Brokk products.

According to Brokk CEO Martin Krupicka: “We are now making an important strategic investment in the Swiss market. Our Swiss customers’ high demands on both the machines and the after-market service makes for a very good fit with Brokk’s values and how we operate. Consequently, we see a great potential for long-term growth and continued successful co-operation.”

The new company will be headed by managing director Dieter Kaupp and is the 12th Brokk subsidiary company to be established.
