This recognition to Jean Pierre Piret has a very special value for Fermax. He became distributor of Fermax in Belgium in 1991, achieving excellent results. Last year, in 2015, his companies ABYZ (security solutions) and Dobiss Domotics (home automation systems manufacturing) joined Fermax, consolidating the brand in the country under the name FERMAX BELGIUM. The purchase of the majority capital of these two companies by Fermax was the result of an excellent commercial relationship maintained over time and build up thanks to shared values: its commitment to specialization and confidence in the family business model that looks into the long term. Since FERMAX BELGIUM is a reality, the evolution of the Spanish multinational in this European country is being very positive.
