Roland Berger Strategy Consultants Opens Its 50th Office in Montreal and Its 51st in Boston - The "Plan for Growth" Strategy Is Paying Off


MUNICH, GERMANY and MONTREAL and BOSTON, MA--(Marketwire - Jul 5, 2012) -  Roland Berger Strategy Consultants is opening a new office in Montreal (Canada) -- its 50th! This is a key milestone for the international strategy consultancy. The new office is part of the growth strategy that the 220 Roland Berger Partners kicked off in late 2010. Part of this "Plan for Growth" is renewed commitment to the North American market, including a further office that will open in Boston.

"We are pleased and proud that with Montreal and Boston, we now have more than 50 Roland Berger offices around the world," says Martin C. Wittig, CEO of Roland Berger Strategy Consultants. "Our strategy for expanding the North American business is paying off!" Roland Berger has already been advising Canadian companies in and outside Canada for some time now. "This commitment will be stepped up further with the new location in Montreal," says Wittig. Roland Berger has been present in North America for ten years now, with now five offices: New York, Detroit, Chicago, Boston and Montreal.

However, strategy consulting is growing not only in America: "Roland Berger's excellent global positioning can be attributed to our 220 Partners, who with their 'Plan for Growth' have stepped up their investment into the firm's development," says Wittig. Since then, this strategy has been paying off especially in the core markets, e.g. Germany, France and China. But Roland Berger has been able to strengthen its presence in other regions besides the US as well, such as Scandinavia, Southeast Asia and Africa. Here the consultancy has been winning key market share from the competition. We will continue to push this growth in the coming years," states Wittig.

Roland Berger Strategy Consultants, founded in 1967, is one of the world's leading strategy consultancies. With about 2,500 employees working in 51 offices in 36 countries worldwide, we have successful operations in all major international markets. The strategy consultancy is an independent partnership exclusively owned by about 220 Partners.
