Customer proximity as a key success factor
The markets in both countries have been intensively served for several years, with continuously increasing sales volumes and a steadily growing customer base. The objective of the new office is to support customers even faster, more personally and with a strong focus on tailored solutions, providing optimal material solutions for their specific needs.
For this reason, the team has been deliberately established locally: Martin Křižka and Kamil Závacký bring not only linguistic expertise but also cultural proximity to the market. Additional industry experts will further strengthen the team in the future. Regional sales activities are supported by the experienced internal sales department at the German headquarters, ensuring close coordination and efficient order processing for an enhanced level of service quality.
Strategic advantage through new production capacities
The expansion gains additional momentum through the new fully automated cutting centre for aluminium in Thuringia (Germany), which is about to commence operations. The geographical proximity between the Czech Republic/Slovakia and the new facility will enable particularly fast and flexible supply chains in the future. By combining strong regional market presence, international warehousing and logistics capabilities, and state-of-the-art production technology, BIKAR METALS continues to strengthen its position as a reliable partner for industrial semi-finished products in Central and Eastern Europe.
Clear competitive positioning
In a competitive environment, BIKAR METALS focuses on its core strengths: a comprehensive product portfolio, high material availability and fast, precision cutting services combined with a strong customer-oriented approach. These factors are particularly crucial in industries characterized by high time and quality pressures. The key target groups in the Czech Republic and Slovakia include tool and mould making companies as well as industries with high requirements in terms of precision and delivery speed, including the aerospace sector, the energy industry and other demanding industrial sectors.
The BIKAR METALS product range includes semi-finished products made of aluminium, copper, brass, bronze, and other non-ferrous metals – from sheets and plates to bars, profiles and tubes, as well as individually manufactured precision cuts.
The opening of the office in Zlín represents a clear commitment to the market, to customer proximity and to continued sustainable growth in the region.
