By GlobalDataMeanwhile, Eurofins CPT last week announced it has acquired AQM in a move that provides a “relevant, comprehensive range of product inspection and factory audit services in EMEA and Asia, significantly contributing to Eurofins’ continued growth plans and expansion into new fields and adjacent markets.”
Established in France, and subsequently moving to Shanghai, AQM conducts inspection and audits, corporate social responsibility and brand protection, mostly in Asia (China, Cambodia, Vietnam, Myanmar, India, Bangladesh, Pakistan), but also in EMEA (Europe, Turkey, Tunisia, Morocco and Ethiopia).
AQM is accredited by ICS and Amfori-BSCI and partners with brands on their social and environmental responsibility programmes – and will be referred to as ‘Eurofins|AQM.’
“As a result of this operation, Eurofins strengthens its position as a leading company in the TIC sector worldwide, now offering the widest service portfolio covering the global supply chain of retailers, brand owners and manufacturers across continents and consumer product industries,” says Stéphane Barrau, VP Eurofins CPT.
