The activities of Panasonic Electric Works in Europe started more than 30 years ago by developing, in co-operation with their European customers, new generations of electromechanical relays which successfully contributed to more efficient and economical devices.
Meanwhile, our European organisation is gradually involved in the sales, production and development of products from all divisions of the mother company Matsushita Electric Works in Japan. This is mainly done under brand (sensors under brand).
Panasonic Electric Works Europe AG is the Headquarters for the sales companies in a large number of European countries. With the co-operation of these and various other partner companies, we can offer a full-coverage service throughout Europe. Our sales companies are organised on a local basis so that they reflect national characteristics and take account of the economic conditions specific to each country. Within a framework where tasks are shared with the Panasonic Electric Works companies, PEW Europe AG is responsible for planning, development, technical service, central marketing, material management, controlling, IT and worldwide co-ordination. A central European warehouse and production facilities in Pfaffenhofen (D), Plana (CZ) and Enns (A) also fall under PEW Europe AG's administrative umbrella.
The Czech Sales Office in Plana was founded in January 2004 in order to expand sales activities in the Eastern European countries. Also located in Plana is Panasonic Electric Works Czech, our second production facility in Europe which we consider an extension of our German factory in Pfaffenhofen.
