Hirose opens New England sales and application-engineering center

Downers Grove, IL. Hirose has expanded its North American sales and application engineering support services with the opening of a new office in Andover, MA. The New England-based office offers sales and technical support that strengthens Hirose’s ability to quickly meet customer requirements. The new office reflects Tokyo-headquartered Hirose’s growth in North America and demonstrates its continued commitment to customers and channel partners.

The customer-support center offers specialized connectivity design support for consumer products, data-center equipment, and home appliances as well as for industrial, lighting, medical, smart-grid, telecom, test-and-measurement, and transportation applications. Integrating sales, service, and support, Hirose shortens the design cycle and satisfies application demands.

“The opening of the New England facility is the result of Hirose’s continued growth in North America. The sales and customer service center includes highly trained engineers and sales professionals that simplify the design and purchasing processes for our customers. We are confident that the new east coast office will serve as a basis for future success in North America,” said Rick van Weezel, vice president of sales and marketing for Hirose Electric USA.
