Duluth, GA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/05/2015 --KRAIBURG TPE announces the formation of a new entity in Mexico under the legal name KRAIBURG TPE México S. de R.L. de C.V. As an operating subsidiary of KRAIBURG TPE Corporation in the US, the new company will function primarily as a provider of commercial and logistical support infrastructure for goods importation into the region. The formation of the Mexican entity will help to accelerate business growth, provide a higher level of localized service, and improve turnaround times.
The newly-formed Mexico division of KRAIBURG TPE will also benefit both current and future customers located in Central America. Operating under KRAIBURG TPE México S. de R.L. de C.V. provides more efficient importation operations, improved logistics management and streamlines the flow of materials. It also reduces the need for administrative support, documentation, and invoicing of imported goods.

"The formation of this new KRAIBURG TPE entity represents a major step forward in our efforts to expand further and solidify our business base throughout North and Central America, " said Jeff Frankish, Managing Director of KRAIBURG TPE. "It also ensures that we are well-positioned to take advantage of the tremendous economic and market growth anticipated within Mexico over the coming years."
