Watts sets up in Latin America
ERJ staff report (DS)
Montevideo, Uruguay -- Watts Tyre Group, the UK based industrial tyre and wheel producer has created a new business unit, Watts America Latina to service the Latin American market excluding Brazil and Mexico where the group has existing business operations.
The new unit is headquartered in Montevideo, Uruguay and is headed by Director General Carlos Correia. It will service container customers across the region and operates a warehouse from which pallet orders can be shipped.
“Our strategy for growth has always been based around our customers and we recognise that Latin America as a region represents a significant opportunity for us and that a physical presence in that market would better serve our customers. Our operations in Brazil and Mexico will remain distinct for now due to the size of their respective local markets and we want to offer our customers outside of those countries a dedicated Watts presence.â€
