A partner with production in Europe is of great importance for international companies for several reasons. First, geographical proximity to target markets enables shorter delivery times and lower transport costs, which is particularly crucial in markets with high customer demands for speed and flexibility. Second, local production allows companies to better address regional market conditions and customer requirements, as they can react more quickly to fluctuations in demand or specific requirements. Third, a European partner offers access to the EU's high quality and regulatory standards, which facilitates compliance and builds customer confidence. Fourth, production in Europe reduces dependence on global supply chains, minimizing risks such as geopolitical uncertainties, tariffs, or logistical bottlenecks. Finally, a local partner promotes integration into regional networks, which facilitates collaboration with suppliers and research institutions.
