The leadership team at Okuma America Corporation, a global leader and single-source builder of computer numeric control (CNC) machine tools, controls and automation systems, is pleased to announce the addition of a new partner to distribute Okuma products and services in Brazil. Maquinas e Solucoes Servicos de Representacao e Manutencao de Equipamentos Ltda (M&S), a member of the Molgroup of companies, will begin serving Okuma customers and prospects in Brazil effective immediately.
Several factors were considered by the Okuma leadership team when choosing M&S for Brazil, the most important of which was the common mission of both 100+ year old companies to provide high-quality, high-performance machine tools, automation systems and premium support to the expanding manufacturing industry throughout Brazil. Additionally, Okuma and Molinari, also a member of the Molgroup of companies, have enjoyed a 40+ year OEM-distributor partnership in other Latin American regions including Argentina and neighboring countries.
Mr. Tim Thiessen, Senior Vice President of Sales & Marketing at Okuma America Corporation, expressed his excitement about the new partnership, “by partnering with Maquinas e Solucoes (M&S) in Brazil, we will be able to further strengthen our offering and value proposition for customers in Brazil. Customers in the region will now be supported by both M&S and Okuma Latino Americana, an Okuma affiliate office in the region.”
