Nilpeter Región Andina, which will open in February, will cover South America’s Andean region, including Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia.

It will be headed by Andean regional manager Juan Pablo Patino, a Colombian national who relocates from Lima, Peru, where Nilpeter’s regional headquarters was previously based.

The Lima office will remain in place, and Patino will divide his time between the two countries.

‘In the last three years, our business in Colombia has increased significantly and created the need for us to have a stronger presence in the market,’ said Juan Pablo Patino.

The Colombian office hosts dedicated technicians to service presses installed in the region. ‘For us it is clear that every sale must be followed by excellent post-sale service, so for this reason we decided to invest in direct, local technical support,’ said Patino.

Nilpeter has also begun to distribute Rotoflex finishing equipment in the Andean region.
