Christa Janssen, Directora General de GOFA<\/strong> dijo: \u00abComo l\u00edder mundial en la fabricaci\u00f3n de equipos criog\u00e9nicos, Chart contribuir\u00e1 en gran medida al desarrollo geogr\u00e1fico de los equipos m\u00f3viles de GOFA.

Tom Carey, Presidente de Chart Distribution & Storage<\/strong> (D&S) -compa\u00f1\u00eda en la que GOFA operar\u00e1 a partir de ahora-, coment\u00f3: <\/strong>\u00abGOFA tiene grandes ventas y ofrece servicios en una region en la que estamos deseando ampliar nuestra presencia.

Ralph Hagelgans<\/strong><\/a>, Socio de Livingstone D\u00fcsseldorf <\/strong>coment\u00f3: \u00abFue un verdadero placer asesorar a los accionistas de GOFA.

\u00abEsta operaci\u00f3n deja claro que las empresas alemanas del Mittelstand altamente competitivas, con experiencia tecnol\u00f3gica y posicionadas en nichos de mercado, despiertan el inter\u00e9s
