We have decided to close the office in Toronto, Canada and establish ourselves in the USA as Aasted North America; to be exact in Bohemia, New York and Glyndon, Maryland. We have come to this decision due to the changes in market conditions among our customers, the global infrastructure, and in appreciation of a growing demand and need from our customers for an even more direct communication.
 

We take this opportunity to thank Mr. Kurt Karlsen and Mr. Jan Karlsen of our Toronto office for a long-time good and loyal cooperation, wishing them continued good luck and success.
 

Our two former agents on the North American market, Mr. Per Karlsen, Karlsen Food Systems and Mr. Ray Cote, American Chocolate Mould Co. have joined forces, and will represent the new Aasted North America. With the establishment of Aasted North America being a natural consequence of the merger between Aasted-Mikroverk and A.E. Nielsen, we have consolidated our sales forces, blending experience and competence within the North American market.

The advantage for you, as our customer, is a complete and efficient team with talent and skills within chocolate, confectionary and bakery equipment. We are proud to say that all in all we are delighted to offer you our more than 50 years of experience, and through our assistance and service we will support you in your efforts of becoming even more successful in the market.
 

Kind regards from Mads Hedstrøm, President CSO, Aasted ApS
