Karlsruhe, March 29, 2016 ? asknet AG, a provider of global e-commerce solutions, signed contracts with several new customers in Asia today. ?Thanks to our Tokyo office, which opened ten years ago, and our business partners ? both clients and shareholders - we have always had a strong presence in Asia. However, these new contracts underscore our strategic focus all the more,? said Tobias Kaulfuss, CEO of asknet AG. With the strategic Change Initiative launched in 2015, asknet is concentrating on the principles of entrepreneurship, customer centricity and a sales focus on existing strengths in addition to enhancing potential in new products and markets.
Andy Tung, an expert with several years of experience in e-commerce solution sales for digital products, has been supporting the asknet team as Vice President Sales APAC for several weeks now. ?From his base in Taipei, Andy Tung can optimally access key strategic growth markets in Asia, predominantly China,? Tobias Kaulfuss added.
asknet was able to fulfil its guidance for 2015. For the 2015 fiscal year, asknet forecast that it would be able to achieve balanced earnings before taxes (EBT), an almost unchanged gross profit and a moderate increase in the gross profit margin. The detailed results will be published at the end of April, in accordance with the financial calendar. asknet anticipates that more contracts will be concluded with customers in the coming weeks and months. As a result, asknet forecasts ongoing positive development in 2016, not least in view of the already successfully concluded contracts. ?We are delighted with the success of our Change Initiative, and will continue to pursue it systematically in 2016. Additional growth requires a new basis, which we have been establishing for the past year through product innovations and by recruiting experts in international e-commerce,? Tobias Kaulfuss said in conclusion.
