Introducing the staff members working to provide excellent service for SATRA customers and members in China.

As a membership-based organisation, SATRA realises the importance of providing an excellent level of service. In order to offer personal attention to new and existing customers based in and around China, SATRA has established a team located in Dongguan, led by Asia Business Development Manager, Paul Vaughan.

In line with this, customers are welcome to visit SATRA’s Dongguan facilities to consult and receive assistance with their specific business requirements. In addition, members of the SATRA team often visit customers’ factories and offices to discuss their individual processes and products and to explain how SATRA can help.

Now that the SATRA safety footwear laboratory in China is fully operational, the membership team is endeavouring to introduce the facility’s full capabilities to all members and customers.

SATRA’s Dongguan office is a one-stop shop to which customers and members in Asia can send their products. In addition, a number of technical seminars and training courses are held there. These events are presented in the boardrooms by SATRA experts and local members of staff to ensure efficient communication with delegates.

Each year, the SATRA team visits many tradeshows and exhibitions to showcase SATRA’s services, and meet both new and existing customers. As in previous years, the China membership team will be working hard during 2014 to provide excellent customer service and develop business throughout Asia.
