Harmony Enterprises Opens New Operation in France

Harmony Enterprises Inc., Harmony, Minn.-based  manufacturer of recycling and waste management equipment, has purchased Cypress Environnement, based in Toulouse, France. Cypress had been a Harmony dealer for more than 10 year. Harmony says the acquisition will allow it to better serve its European customers.

Steve Cremer, Harmony Enterprises’ president, says the company is thrilled to be able to provide its full line of customized balers and compactors to the European marketplace through its direct European presence. For more than 20 years Harmony has sold its recycling and compacting equipment in Europe primarily through dealers and distributors like Cypress Environnement.

Cremer says, “A direct sales force and a fully supported technical support team allow us to grow our sales, not only in France, but throughout Europe and Eastern Europe. Plus, our staff of technicians in Toulouse will now be able to give ‘European time’ support to our customers.”

In a release, Harmony notes that since it acquired Cypress it has been able to directly ship equipment to customers in Romania, Austria and Morocco.

Cremer says the company wants to continue Harmony Enterprise's reputation of quality products and exceptional customer service, across the globe. “As in the U.S., our customers know that we can not only provide the best solutions to their recycling and waste problems, but also the best customer service in our industry.”
