Answering the question how Hesmor's position of customer service is being realized, Mr. Dong answered that most of the European and American companies are only represented in China by distributors or representing Sales agents and not by the the company itself.Although some companies have established offices in China, they are only sales offices with very little technical support.The different cooperative approach of Hesmor can be layed out as follows. 1. Hesmor’s bussiness structure for industrial mobile machinery consists of technical sales agents, which provide system solutions to the customer. Technical sales agents are supported by our OEM partners network. This system guarantees our Chinese customers 24 hour technical support county wide. 2.
