The Austrian Trade Commission for the GCC has awarded Doka, the formwork systems provider, the ‘Best Austrian Company in the GCC 2013’ title for its strong performance over the last year, it has been announced.
The award recognises operational excellence in the GCC, which in turn contributes to the growth of bilateral relations between Austria and the GCC. The recipient is chosen by the Austrian Trade Commissioner for the GCC and an independent advisory board from the Austrian Business Council.
“Doka Middle East region is a robust operation whose growth has increased ten-fold over the past decade. Our ME roots date back to the 1970’s, with today thousands of completed projects in the high-rise, commercial, residential building and civil engineering sectors,” said Peter Vogel, director of Doka Group, Middle East, as he accepted the award.
“Our secret to success was sharpening our competitive edge [as we served the region], ensuring the best formwork technology and engineering are provided to the construction market. With our specialized expertise we will continue to be a leader in the construction sector,” he added.
Closing the presentation, Doka thanked the Austrian Trade Commission for its proactive support throughout, and Peter Vogel reiterated the companies commitment as a corporate member of the Austrian Business Council to propagate Austrian commercial interests in the region.
