New Fulham offices in Alkmaar incorporate R&D, sales, admin and customer service

Monday 11 July 2016 marks the official transfer of Fulham Group’s European head office to Alkmaar in the Netherlands. The move follows Fulham Group’s recent acquisition of Lumotech’s LED driver business which itself is based in Alkmaar. The transaction to acquire Lumotech assets was completed on 30 June 2016.

Commenting on the move, Mark Needham, Fulham’s European Vice President for Sales said, “This reflects Fulham Group’s strategy for Europe in that we have a meaningful European presence including a design centre for developing LED drivers for the market and the people to better serve our growing European distributor and OEM customer base. Europe is a key market for LED luminaire design and having a team of engineers in the Netherlands allows us to more quickly respond to market trends”. He added, “This is an exciting time for us to fully market our now much expanded range of top quality LED drivers and promote the Fulham lighting brand across Europe”.

In addition to the R&D team, Fulham’s new European headquarters also incorporates sales administration and customer service.
