The size, shape and dead weight of grabs may vary and, therefore, be tailored in every respect to the needs of customers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>SMAG is notable for its global service and dealer network that offers the customer a round-the-clock customer service. In addition to the assembly and start-up provided by its technicians, the company also offers training for the operating personnel. As a result, the customers of SMAG get everything from one source.<\/p>\n<p>NEMAG also puts great emphasis on customer communication, from the initial enquiry through to following up the customer in the wake of the purchase, and making sure that everything is to their satisfaction.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter sales and communication are very important,\u201d says sales manager, Riny Stoutjesdijk. \u201cIn fact, they are just as important as the product itself.
