Satellite communication antenna provider Intellian has opened up an office in Shanghai to be close to one of the world's largest shipbuilding markets.
The full-scale operating subsidiary in Shanghai is designed to keep pace with Intellian's growing customer base in China and improve response times. Intellian noted that China was home to three of the 10 largest shipbuilders in the world and Shanghai was headquarters to many large ship management companies, including Cosco.
With the new office Intellian hopes to reduce delivery times with in the past it taking three weeks for new products to be transported to China, including time spent at customs. The company hopes to reduce the time for customers to receive products to between two to five days.
Eric Sung, ceo of Intellian, said, “China is a core region of the maritime industry and a market with great potential. Intellian expects to provide unique value to the maritime communication service market and to reach more customers by establishing Intellian China.”
Intellian operates 10 offices worldwide including in the US, UK, Singapore and the Netherlands.
