The end of the year is approaching and it is time to look back and make a summary. This has been our first year as part of Huayi group and it has been very positive; consequently, we have gained financial stability that has allowed us to stabilize our production, improve our level of service, reduce our lead times and recover the confidence and trust of the market.
During 2013 we have also launched our new website and we have organized our first Customer's Day. We can say now that HCB is a strong player in the commercial refrigeration market, being part of the largest compressor manufacturer in the world.
At the same time. it is a moment for looking forward and defining the strategies for 2014. Throughout the next year we will continue improving our manufacturing facilities in order to offer a better level of service, to improve our competitiveness and to extend our product range to meet the market requirements in terms of energy consumption and new refrigerants. At the same time with the support of the group we will enter in new markets where our presence up to today was very limited. As you can see, next year is a period full of challenges for HCB that we expect to achieve with your support and partnership.
Merry Christmas and a very prosperous 2014.
