European Manufacturer Growth
Wilmarco Technologies helped an Italian manufacturer gain access to the North American market through intensive market assessment, and persistent calling on customers.

Wilmarco outlined the market landscape, structured a customer call plan, and began executing the plan. The result was new customers and new revenue for the manufacturer.
As a final piece of the engagement, Wilmarco delivered an investment pro forma, addressing the business case for a new factory in North America. This allowed the European company to plan future investments as their business grows.
