Tom-Tom Selects Regenersis Romania for Pan-European Refurbishment Programme
TomTom, a world leading navigation solutions provider, has confirmed Regenersis as its preferred Pan-European refurbishment partner. The work will be carried out in the new Regenersis facility in Bucharest, Romania, which, by December 2008, will employ over 200 members of staff.
This news follows on the heels of the recent confirmation that the Bucharest facility has been accredited by Sony Ericsson to support their mobile phone warranty repair programme.
Regenersis already provides warranty and technical repair services to TomTom in the UK from its facility in Glenrothes, Fife.
Mark Hilton, After Sales Manager at TomTom said, “Regenersis are a proactive partner supporting us with a full programme of repair and refurbishment services. We have been impressed with their work in the UK, and were equally impressed by the local management at the Bucharest facility. We believe the team in Bucharest are up to the challenge of supporting our European refurbishment programme and we look forward to working with them.”
Gary Stokes, Regenersis CEO said, “This is a significant win for Regenersis and clearly demonstrates that our focus on delivering outstanding customer service to our global customer base is yielding positive results.”
