New springtime for Guandong

Monday 29. July 2019 - Interior decoration represents a huge opportunity for a wide variety of new products. In order to help print producers to develop their business and fully exploit this new opportunity, we need to assist them in raising their customers awareness of the products and possibilities available.

With these words Edoardo Elmi – founder of Guandong Italia – welcomed the annual meeting with the Italian press, which this year was full of news and special guests. In addition to journalists, were also present: Reed Exhibitions, Alberto Masserdotti as President of the association Fespa Italia and Mauro Oliva, Managing Director of Alpac, as Guandong ambassador. The entire Guandong Board of Directors was attending too, intervening to formalize the appointment of Daniele Faoro, already a member of the board, as Managing Director of Guandong Italia.
And it was Mr. Faoro himself, after taking over, who retraced the steps of the ‘beautiful story’ that in 15 years has led Guandong to become a brand recognized throughout Europe. “We are an Italian company, proud to be so, which has had the courage to go beyond the national borders, building over time a reputation based on consolidated knowledge, reliability, financial solidity, willingness to innovate and experiment”. And it is the facts that demonstrate the company’s growth: 75,000 items handled each year, 92% of orders processed in 36 hours, 82% of requests answered in 1 hour, 0.2% of complaints received in 2019, all in 36 countries covered by the distribution network built by Guandong over the years.
