Announcing the New Harmony Europe Website!

February 17, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Harmony Enterprises is a small company located in the rural town of Harmony, Minnesota, USA. But with customers located internationally, and a new office opened last spring in France, our reach has expanded throughout Europe and across the globe. To better serve and communicate with our french speaking customers, we have developed the Harmony Europe website in french.

This new Harmony Europe website will allow us to better connect with our french speaking customers and highlight the products that are the most popular in their country. For example, the smaller profile balers and compactors are in high demand in France because of their compact size.

With the sales and service office in Toulouse, France, a website customized to their needs is a necessity. Instead of french customers contacting our office in the U.S., they now have easy access to the french office’s phone number, contact information, and detailed product information so they can receive service from staff with a direct European presence.
