New Snorkel dealer for Latvia

Snorkel has appointed Latteps as its official distributor for Latvia.

Latteps was established in 1991 and is based in Riga, it provides a wide range of speciality services to the oil & gas industry, as well as transport infrastructure and construction work. As the company has not operated an equipment distribution before, it organised factory product training for key staff, and recruited Elina Kavinska as sales manager dedicated to the Snorkel products. During that factory visit Latteps chief business development officer Arturs Kavinskis signed the distribution agreement. The company also placed initial stock orders for machines and a stock of replacement parts.
