LG declares war
Published:  18 January, 2005

LG Electronics has declared war on the UK market in an

announcement outlining dramatic plans designed to

position the company amongst the country’s top three air

conditioning manufacturers by 2007.

General Manager, Tony Gittings, stated: “We know that

the top two VRF players are formidable competitors, with

extremely good, proven product ranges. We will attain

growth by securing market share with superior product

performance, service and technical excellence, as well as

more desirable market prices.”

Though the company have their sights set firmly on

further success in the future, their current battle plans are

the result of considerable introspection and inward

investment.

Increased numbers of qualified service and technical

personnel are being slotted into a revised staff structure

that is designed to encourage both individual excellence

and improved distribution and sales support for

contractors, end-users, specifiers and building services

consultancies alike.

“It’s time to evolve and move up scale in the

marketplace’s perception of the LG brand,” Tony Gittings

asserted, adding that an important part of this offensive

would be continuous training to be carried out at the

company’s own bespoke, dedicated Training Academy,

which will open in early 2005.
