Selected

Due to/based on its network of (business) contacts which has grown/developed over time,...

...ABC AG opens up (to us) interesting prospects in German-speaking markets.

Wrong spelling - should read "Beziehungsge*f*lecht" in German original.

My two cents...

increasingly interwoven relationships

For reasons of the increasingly interwoven relationships on the German-speaking markets, abs ag affords us interesting opportunities to make [establish] special contacts
Peer comment(s):

disagree Ulrike Lieder (X) : Sounds very good, but is *not* what the German says - "gewachsen" merely indicates that lots of contacts have evolved over time, nowhere does the German say that the contacts are becoming increasingly interwoven.
