Amy Xiao, Marketing Manager at Kalerm, explains why the company decided to join the EVA “Joining the EVA can be a strategic move to enhance the Kalerm’s presence in the vending and coffee service industry. We would like to connect with other professionals and companies in the vending and coffee service industry, and build relationships with potential partners, suppliers, and customers.”
Erwin Wetzel, Director General of the EVA commented, “I welcome Kalerm as the latest new member for the Association. By becoming members, Kalerm can now benefit from our detailed market knowledge of European markets which can help focus business investments, while a further manufacturer offering a wide range of coffee machines can only help to continue the industry-wide trend for premium coffee and experiences. I firmly believe that the networking opportunities that the EVA offers – such as EVEX – can really help companies to meet new players and partners in Europe. I therefore look forward to exploring the EVA membership services with Kalerm.”
