Sales and marketing
The subsidiaries and the agent network
form a comprehensive and a well-functioning system, which help to
achieve a sufficiently extensive market area. There is no need to grow
the market area. Primary focus is on utilizing the marketing work done
in the current areas for years. In the declining markets the turnover
is increased with after-sales and modernisation products.
