Area Sales Manager - Egypt

Egypt has well-established furniture producers with a long tradition. With over one thousand employees, Pollmeier is the world market and technology leader in the processing of beech hardwood from responsibly managed forests in Germany. Egypt’s large furniture production has a high usage of beechwood. Better beechwood products from Pollmeier enable our customers in Egypt to reduce significantly material- and labour costs and improve at the same time the quality of their production. It takes a better awareness of our products and better consultation of the furniture factories to make those benefits visible for our customers.
