Monistrol-sur-Loire, France – November 14, 2024 – Modern Process Equipment (MPE) is proud to announce the opening of its European Union headquarters in Monistrol-sur-Loire, near Lyon, France. This significant expansion enhances MPE’s capacity to support customers across the EU in sectors such as coffee, dry foods, pet food, chemicals, and minerals, by providing unparalleled local service, engineering expertise, and supply chain efficiency.
A key component of this strategic growth is MPE’s acquisition of COJIT, an established industrial engineering firm in France.

This transition ensures the continuity of expertise and reinforces MPE’s commitment to building a strong foundation for ongoing growth and customer satisfaction in Europe.
