Javier ManzanoBoth Disesa and Xperto have long and established experience in the testing market, having built strong reputations already, with an excellent understanding of customer requirements in quality control testing.
Commenting on the new partnerships, Javier Manzano, International Sales Manager at James Heal, says:
Central America as a region is a relatively untapped area for James Heal, but we see huge potential in this market to establish our brand and product offering, to work with the ambitious retailers and testing houses that are established in the region. Therefore, it was crucial that we found partners who could open new opportunities and use their established expertise in their markets.
Javier Mazano, International Sales Manager at James Heal
We understand from our own research, that the textile and apparel industries in Central American countries are becoming increasingly competitive in the global market; particularly of interest to US retailers who are starting to move production there due to the geographic proximity to the United States - the world's largest textile and apparel market.
Javier added, "We are delighted to bring Disesa and Xperto on board, at what is a very exciting time for James Heal. We look forward to working in partnership continue to meet our customers' testing requirements, by delivering innovative materials testing solutions and technical support. To discuss your testing requirements further, I encourage you to contact Frederick and Mayel to find out more about how they can assist you."
