Swedish-based survey and GIS equipment maker Satlab Geosolutions AB has expanded into the U.S. and Americas with the creation of a new sister company Satlab Geosolutions (USA), Inc., based in Scottsdale, Arizona. Phil Gabriel has been named managing director of the USA office.

Setting up a formal base of operations in the U.S. will allow Satlab to better service their clients and expand their customer base in the U.S., Canada, Mexico and Latin America, a company release said. As past president of Hemisphere GNSS, Gabriel brings to the team his many years of experience in the survey, GIS, GNSS, machine control, marine and navigation industries, Satlab said.

The U.S. location will sell, support and service the new product lineup being introduced at InterGeo in Berlin, Germany, on October 7.  Satlab is seeking dealers to expand its business throughout the Americas.

“The addition of a U.S. office is an exciting next step for us, after successful expansion into Turkey and the Czech Republic in the last few years,” said Bjorn Agardh, CEO of Satlab Geosolutions AB.

“Our products have been well received and continue to perform extremely well,” added Birol Gucluer, CTO and partner of Satlab.

“I’m excited to join Bjorn and Birol, extending their success by ensuring their high standards in customer service are maintained here in the Americas,” Gabriel said.

Satlab invites Survey and GIS dealers to meet the expanded team at InterGeo October 7-9 in Berlin, where they will be introducing several new models of their popular receivers and handhelds.
