Most products are for machinery, leather, (hand) tool machine applications.
Sam Wu, the 2nd generation of division chief good at marketing said, “Before stepping into sales, training in the production lines has to be done first. With such experience, I have a better understanding of the technical ability and quality advantages of the company and also have a better idea of what is worth investing. The addition of continuous mold and multi-station facilities is our focus of preparation for the upcoming competition.” It is not surprising at all that Ample Long have shown such stable growth and it also plans to expand the current factory by the yearend of 2015 and will purchase 4 sets of multi-station facilities in order to increase the capacity next year.
“Upgraded equipment enables us to overcome higher technical level and produce screws that need more complex processes. We have the optimal R&D ability for products and can provide OEM and ODM service,” added Wu. Speaking of the market, Wu said, “Ample Long cooperates with local importers and exporters for its domestic and foreign sales. As a result, we focus more on increasing our brand awareness as the current marketing strategy and may also widen our market deployment through cooperating with local sales agents.”
