TÃœV SÃœD Wins Business Award for Asia Pacific Operations

TÃœV SÃœD AG is the winner of the "Best of European Business" award. The renowned accolade was created by Roland Berger Strategy Consultants to honour companies and top managers. TÃœV SÃœD received the award for its successful business operations in Asia Pacific, particularly the ASEAN-5 countries.

The sixth "Best of European Business" competition of Roland Berger Strategy Consultants was dedicated to the performance of German and European companies in Asia Pacific, particularly their activities in the ASEAN-5 countries (Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam). TÃœV SÃœD AG received the award for the company's rapid development and broad presence in the Asia Pacific region. The jury particularly emphasized the intelligent diversification of services. In the ASEAN-5 countries, TÃœV SÃœD not only relies on its traditional products in the industry sector, but has consistently developed services catering to the needs of the Southeast Asian enterprises, particularly in the field of consumer products.

Dr Axel Stepken, CEO and President of TÃœV SÃœD AG: "Between 2005 and 2010 we quadrupled our sales revenue and our staff headcount in Asia Pacific. As a service provider, we develop our strategy along the development of the international markets and the requirements of our clients. This also applies to Southeast Asia, where we have aligned our services to cater to the special requirements of these markets. As the manufacturing of textiles, clothing and shoes is one of the strengths of these markets, we made targeted investments in the further improvement and expansion of our softlines testing infrastructure. For over 140 years, TÃœV SÃœD has been striving to make products and processes safe, reliable and profitable. This also, and particularly, applies to new topics and innovative technologies such as e-mobility, renewable energies or energy efficiency."
