Intellian Opens In
China To Build Largest Asia Network In Market
16 April 2018
Intellian, has established a
Chinese corporation subsidiary in Shanghai and officially
started operations there to better meet local customer demand.
Intellian provides products
and technical support to partner companies on every continent of
the world through its 10 subsidiaries based in the U.S., U.K.,
Netherlands, Singapore and other regions. And now it has
launched an additional full-scale operating subsidiary in
Shanghai, one of the largest shipbuilding markets in the world,
in order to keep pace with its growing customer base there.
Shanghai is one of the three
major ship-related industrial bases in China and where three of
the top 10 shipyards in China – Shanghai WaiGaoQiao, HuDong and
JiangNan – are located. It is also a region where the
headquarters of a large number of ship management companies,
including Cosco, are concentrated, and it boasts the largest
container and cargo volume in the world.
Intellian expects its latest
subsidiary in Shanghai to use these geographical advantages to
enhance customer accessibility and optimize its response system.
It is often difficult for satellite communication service
providers, dealers and general customers to manage customs
issues, but the new office can provide greater convenience to
customers by holding secure products at the local logistics
warehouse to fulfill urgent requests.
Previously it took about two
to three weeks, including customs clearance, for products to be
transported to China, but delivery times are now significantly
reduced with the new Chinese subsidiary. As soon as orders
arrive through the local warehouse, products can be provided
immediately, allowing for customers to receive Intellian
products even during short docking periods of two to five days.
Intellian is currently
providing customer services with local staff and trained
technicians based in the city for easier and faster
correspondence. In addition, it plans to organize an
omnidirectional installation support system by organizing
supporting teams and executing quarterly product training
programs for partner companies in China.
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.”
