We’ve recently had the pleasure of opening our doors and welcoming some of our most important suppliers here at ALPHR. These visits are always fantastic opportunities to really strengthen our relationships, get hands-on with exciting new tech, and have the kind of frank, productive conversations you just can’t get over email.
Festo Rolls In with Innovation
Festo definitely arrived in style, pulling up with their Technofair van. It gave us a brilliant chance to dig into the latest technologies they’re working on. From brand-new automation components to clever smart solutions that could easily shape our next big projects, it was a day packed full of demos and lively discussions.
We walked away from that visit feeling informed and buzzing with ideas about how we could weave some of their innovations into what we’re building here at ALPHR.
A Warm Welcome for KUKA’s Leadership
We were thrilled to host Kagan Abidin, KUKA UK’s Managing Director, and Jonathan Pick, UK Sales Manager. This was Kagan’s first time visiting ALPHR, and we were proud to give him a proper, unfiltered tour of our operations.
Both Kagan and Jonathan were visibly impressed by the sheer variety and high quality of the work happening on our floor. We had some excellent talks about how we can align our efforts even more closely, especially when it comes to brand collaboration and boosting visibility for both our companies in the marketplace.
Desoutter: Building on a Strong Foundation
Our long-standing partners, Mark Taylor, UK General Manager, and Dave Gregory, Area Sales Manager at Desoutter, also stopped by. Mark, who makes a point of visiting his key partners annually, spent quality time catching up on our latest projects and understanding exactly how Desoutter can continue to support our needs.
As always, the conversation was both productive and forward-thinking. There’s a tremendous amount of mutual respect between our teams, and we’re excited to keep building on that solid foundation.
Murr Elektronik Gets Technical
Last but not least, we hosted a focused technical workshop with Murr Elektronik. They guided us through some of their newest innovations, specifically showing us how their technology can help us drive down overall costs and boost the quality within our systems.
It was a really solid session that sparked some fresh thinking among our engineering team and opened up a lot of useful conversations about potential future projects.
Here at ALPHR, we understand that strong supplier relationships aren’t something that just happens, they’re carefully built on a foundation of trust and openly sharing knowledge.
A huge thanks again to everyone who made the trip. We’re looking forward to turning these valuable conversations into concrete action!
