"Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all."—Dale Carnegie
Some companies stand out in the industry for their strength and resilience over time. Celebrating their 25th Year, Yukatel Gmbh are weathering the current storm with years of experience and innovative strategies behind them - remaining strong and open for business.
Firstly, a big congratulations from all of the Team at IPT – this year marks 25 years of Yukatel! Did you think in the beginning that Yukatel as a business would be as successful globally as it is today?
Would I have known 25 years ago that I would be successful? From the beginning, I had the goal to build something long term and big. I started with this goal and never lost sight of it. With discipline and order, I worked reverently towards my goal and achieved it.
The Yukatel name has become synonymous with strength, quality and reliability. What are the biggest challenges you are facing as a result of the current pandemic?
The biggest challenge now is to protect and maintain the qualities and reliability we offer. Furthermore we make it our task to strengthen our qualities also in this difficult pandemic time! All in all, we see ourselves emerging from these difficult times stronger.
You are managing to maintain high levels of service and remain open for business in spite of current Covid-19 restrictions. How are you managing to steer the company through these turbulent times?
We achieve this by maintaining close communication within the team as well as with our customers and suppliers. Furthermore, we analyse the market non-stop and are always prepared for changes. In particular, our fast reaction times have confirmed our competence in taking measures to protect the health of our employees and customers and to maintain the quality of our service.
How are you and your team preparing for the post pandemic world?
There will certainly be relaxation or adjustments in issues such as health protection measures. Nevertheless, we continue to keep our protective measures high. Further preparations will not be necessary as we have already taken all the measures in advance.
Do you have any advice for younger start-ups companies and budding entrepreneurs who are doing their best to stay afloat?
Our business runs on cash. Systematic structure and an impeccable character as well as honesty in business are now highly appreciated. The correct use of available resources such as time and money is an important part of this.
You’ve been members of IPT for many years now and we’ve seen a lot of changes in the industry together, how would you say being part of our Trading Community benefits your business?
Your company has been helpful for spreading our acquaintance and for some of the business relationships that have been established.
