Herrmans Bike Components establishes new company in Germany
Soon also celebrates 10 years with an own office in Germany
Herrmans Bike Components Ltd is pleased to announce the foundation of Herrmans Bike Components GmbH and the establishment of a new subsidiary in Holzwickede, Germany. This is a natural continuation and reinforcement of the company’s long-term commitment and presence on the German market since 2007. In fact, in February this year, the company will celebrate its 10-year anniversary of the current subsidiary in Germany.
Until now, Herrmans has operated in Germany under the umbrella of a joint subsidiary with sibling company Nordic Lights, which is also active in the lights industry for heavy duty machinery. As both companies are growing and nowadays have separate owner structures, it’s more advantageous to operate through two separate subsidiaries. The companies were separated officially beginning of 2021, and now the split with the new company Herrmans Bike Components GmbH was the logical step also in Germany.
Dan Liljeqvist, CEO of Herrmans Bike Components, looks at the future in Europe with optimism: “This new company gives us a strong platform to keep growing in Central Europe. Our goal is to enable even better support and collaboration with our customers – a direct and easily accessible first point of contact.”
Thorsten Krüger, Global Customer Development Manager at Herrmans Bike Components agrees: “We see that our business in Germany and Central Europe is growing steadily, and very soon our team in Germany will be completed with a new Area Sales Manager to give us even more reach and power to grow the business in Central Europe. With many new and interesting projects in the pipeline, we look forward to having more resources available in Europe.”
