With a significant market presence in Mexico and a thorough market analysis conducted in specific South American countries, we understood that the demand for TPE in Latin America is widespread and to participate in it, we needed a strategic partner to help us achieve our growth objectives in strategic regions such as Peru, Ecuador, Chile and others. ANDERS was the right component for the Andean region, especially in Peru.
