CURRENT MARKET ACTIVITY:

For Exports we are currently trying to expand our range of those products which may be fully assembled, wired & shop tested prior to shipment and thus simplifying the erection/installation process. Products which fall into this group are Automated Transfer Cars;

Telescopic Belt Conveyors;

Vertical Continuous & Reciprocating Conveyors;

Air Cargo, Pallet & Baggage Conveyors:

Special engineered conveyors & systems

MARKET STRATEGY:

Due to the technical nature of our systems and product, where most are custom made, it is difficult to find Agents, Mfg. Reps & Dealers who are qualified both technically & commercially. We believe we will have to use a combination of these and direct sales at the initial stage. Recommendations by Canada's Trade Commissioners re Technically & Commercially qualified Reps would be appreciated. Our prime market thrust is North East & Central USA, Mexico & Central America.
