Granite sink manufacturer SCHOCK is intensifying its business activities in the Czech Republic. The sales team for the Czech market has been bolstered by the addition of graduate engineer Martin Melichar and Tereza Mattušová, both of whom have been working with the SCHOCK brand in the Czech Republic for years. The company now has a dedicated sales team of native speakers supporting the local market both in the back office and in the field.
Sven-Michael Funck, Marketing and Export Director at SCHOCK, explains the reasoning behind the company’s decision: “We want to put the SCHOCK brand in the Czech Republic on a more professional and customer-friendly footing for the future. Our location close to the border is an additional boon to us. With our warehouse there, we are already closer to Prague than we are to many cities in Germany.” This location advantage has a very positive effect on lead times. Any one of the 10,000 sinks in stock in the warehouse at Regen can be with the company’s Czech customers in a minimum of time. The market can be served optimally as a result.
