The company has opened two offices for sales and service in Asia. These offices are located at Mumbai which is Gallus India and Singapore which is Gallus South East Asia (Gallus SEA).

Gallus in India had maintained sales and service cooperation with Heidelberg India, a Gallus stakeholder, and now has established its own sales centre.

Gallus India started its independent operations on 1 December 2011.

The new operation in India will be headed by Samir Patkar as its managing director who was earlier in charge of Gallus products at Heidelberg India.

Narendra Kulkarni will be in charge service and technical support. Additional support will come from local service engineers in Mumbai, New Delhi and Bangalore.

Besides its Indian operation, Gallus India will also serve countries like Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Myanmar, and Nepal.
