Mr. Aras answered our questions about the company and its business activities:

Can you inform us on your product range ? What quality standarts you have ?

Our company manufactures and supplies metal manipulation machines for iron and steel industry along with its industrial knowledge, technical infrastructure as well as its specialised staff. The biggest difference discrepancy we have is to trade over customer orders and to apply innovative requirements coming form consumers. Within the business that modern projects techniques have been applying, rolling mills which can roll bracket, profile, lama, and square, with ribs, flat and also round concrete irons are being established. Our products have been controlled in the light of ISO-9001 quality standard norms to be at the anticipated levels. We are incorporating specific ratios of working years under the guarantee in order to prove our product quality. Moreover, even after guarantee expiry, we are still providing technical manufacturing, assembling, engaging committed machinery or equipment, technical support, training in addition to cost-reducing solutions and operations.

Can you also inform us on serving markets? To what extent your product can reach?

Our aim here is to amend competition level by creating differences within international marketplaces. Moreover, by exporting our products all round the world and gaining sustainable superiority on this field, we would like to be an international trademark in request. For foreign markets, in addition to be exported manufactured goods upon purchase orders, we have installed a variety of rolling mills for altered countries worldwide. Main countries are Iran, Syria, Iraq and Sudan. On the other hand, in domestic marketplace, we can state proudly that approximately in each city our products have been using in iron and steel industry. Nowadays, we have already succeeded on designing of some functional alteration in R&D machinery group. We started to produce high efficient machinery with low cost but high production capacities. Both in domestic markets and overseas marketplace, we are growing up rapidly to reach larger areas.

Can you evaluate the first quarter performance? By comparing this term with the first three months in last year?

The first three months of 2009 was favourable and developing process for us. As it can be understood from previous activities, we achieved our aims in 2009.  Although this year was problematic in terms of cash flow due to the global crisis, we have completed it along with our proper economic and technical politics. However, 2010 is definitely a good deal of developing and growing up year.  By contrast with the natural economics risks, our investment, activities on implementing modern project techniques, product designing upon customer request had succeeded. Our escalating graphics is the most important prove for this.

What kind of improvements are there in domestics and international demand? What is your year end expectation?

As being M.B.M. Machinery we had proved ourselves and became domestically as well as internationally well-known company. One significant prove of this is the raise in natural and overseas demand. Turn-key rolling mill installation, turn-key steel mill installation, supplying rolling and steelworks equipment and also supplying machining counters and equipments all came into demand from iron and steel industries of domestically each city as well as internationally from Iraq, Syria, Sudan and Iran. Our aim here is to conserve and develop our place in supplying chain. In the first half of the year in high demand we have received makes it clear at the end of our expectations is natural. Year end expectation is reached to 30 million USD in exportation. Most importantly, we would like to enlarge our success line by taking consumer request and suggestions into account, providing customer satisfaction with our quality and reliability in after sales services.  We are planning to conserve this philosophy and to implement our goals definitively in 2010.
