Dear reader,
my name is Mick Merrick and I am a specialist in supplying equipment to the UK Utilities Industries.
I am working with Trotec, to help them get a foothold into the UK market. I started this process last month and I am already making progress.
The Trotec Group is an internationally operating trade and service corporation. It has subsidiaries, regional and partner enterprises in over 15 countries of the world. Their business network spreads from Heinsberg, the headquarters near Dusseldorf in Germany, to several countries in Europe and as far as to Hong Kong. This is the latest branch of the Trotec Group, which was established in order to control market development and distribution activities in the Asian market. With its own seminars, research and development divisions and service points in Germany, Austria, France, the Netherlands, Belgium and China, the Trotec business is truly international.
Trotec had decided to expand its operations in the UK. I am leading that initiative and our first step has been to book space at the IWEX exhibition, part of Sustainability Live which takes place at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham between May 24th – 26th. We will be located on Stand A10 adjacent to the drilling and tapping competition.
Trotec will be launching a range of equipment at this prestigious trade show and I will be updating this BLOG on a regular basis.
For now, Auf Wiedersehen!
Your next-door-neighbours are having another one of their long, heated, high-pitched and highly emotional arguments; an intercity train thunders past at the end of the garden leaving a flurry of leaves and a trail of noise in its wake; a young child, all too evidently lacking any of the talent that the rest of Britain has allegedly got, forces a violin to make noises it wasn’t built to make and the banging and slamming and drilling and clanging that has been going on for months in the house next door shows no signs of abating.
The expression “My Home is My Castle” captures like no other the importance of having a home and what this means to the people who own such a home as well as the people who live in it. A home is a source of comfort, of cherished memories, and of accomplishment and pride – and it is a source of strength. You can rest and recuperate at home and you can enjoy the peace that surrounds you in your own four walls.
When was the last time you boarded a plane? Do you recall experiencing any uncomfortable side effects during or after a long-distance flight? No, nothing dramatic like a sudden bout of amnesia and being blissfully unaware of who you are. Or a panic attack because you were strangely unable to peel off your graduated compression stockings. No, something less disturbing and something more familiar like a sore throat perhaps, a stuffy nose, dry, irritated, eyes and itchy skin or raw, red knuckles and chapped lips and hands?
