Disaster shelter manufacturer Extremis Technology to grow presence in Asia

A disaster shelter manufacturer is taking steps to grow its presence in Asia as it ploughs on with what will hopefully be its first profitable year.

Extremis Technology, which manufactures humanitarian shelters, is aiming to broaden its team of international franchisees in the eight countries of the SAARC (South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation) bloc.

It is already making in-roads in member states Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Nepal and Pakistan, using a franchisee business model to keep operational costs down.
