WEG expands its presence in Saudi Arabia
WEG has opened an office in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, a significant step towards enhancing its presence in the Middle East region, reporting to WEG Middle East in Dubai.
The new office in Riyadh is an integral part of the company’s strategy to establish a strong foothold in this important part of the region. It is looking to expand its operations in the area during the coming months to better understand the market, while creating support for products and services in the region.
“WEG’s vision aligns seamlessly with Saudi Arabia's vision for growth, marked by a deliberate shift away from dependence on the oil and gas industry,” said Gautham Madhusudan Athresh, area manager for WEG KSA and Bahrain.
WEG is prepared to contribute to the Kingdom's economic diversification goals outlined in its Vision 2030 initiative. An avenue of contribution involves supplying advanced technology and equipment for renewable energy projects, supporting Saudi Arabia's goal of diversifying its energy sources.
WEG’s industrial solutions have the potential to support the growth of non-oil sectors by providing efficient and reliable electrical equipment for manufacturing and infrastructure development. In fact, WEG has extensive knowledge and expertise in the water industry and experience in desalination projects and in renewable energy. It has already been involved in several Middle Eastern projects, including supplying motors to upgrade air handling units at the main general public hospital in Kuwait, the Al Adan Hospital.
“Our goal is to reinforce WEG’s commitment to serving our customers in Saudi Arabia, offering unparalleled support to meet their evolving needs. We are dedicated to harnessing the potential of this market and look forward to playing a role in its continued development,” added Athresh.
The expansion demonstrates WEG's devotion to meeting the changing needs of its customers and partners around the world. The new office will contribute to a bright future for WEG in the Middle East region and solidifies its position as a leading provider of electrical equipment solutions.
