To support its North American efforts Stork will partner with Chudleigh Sutch to setup a local, North American based, service and sales infrastructure.
Stork IMM, based in Hengelo, Netherlands and founded in 1968, manufactures injection moulding machines ranging in size from 200 to 2,000 tons and focusing on high-speed packaging applications.
Gert Boers, CEO of Stork IMM said, “North America is a strategically key market for Stork IMM. In 2022 we have invested in our regional warehouse and service network. It is now time to move forward with the establishment of Stork IMM USA Llc. Based on our current customer base and infrastructure in the USA we are looking forward to work with Chudleigh Sutch on further investment and expansion in the North American market.”
Chudleigh Sutch was established in 1978 by Brian Leo Chudleigh Sutch and is now led by plastics industry veteran Marcus John Chudleigh Sutch. Per the agreement, Chudleigh Sutch will invest in growing business for Stork IMM throughout North America and develop a local service and sales network.
“The establishment of Stork IMM USA is a natural extension of our three-year partnership with Stork IMM to grow into and expand our North American presence. With Stork’s commitment to greater investment in the region and coupled with Chudleigh Sutch’s 25 years of industry experience in North America we are confident this is a recipe for success.” said Benjamin Sutch, Managing Partner at Chudleigh Sutch.
