“It was with great pride that I accepted the tasks with which I was entrusted by today’s Board of Directors’ Meeting, and I’m ready to face the difficult situation on the market.” These were the words uttered by Graziano Verdi, chairman and managing director of Technokolla, after the Board of Directors’ meeting. The top manager is back in the office previously held by Romano Minozzi, principal shareholder and founder of the company, who, when asked what he thought about Graziano Verdi also becoming chairman of IRIS, exclaimed with an eloquent “IF ONLY IT WERE TRUE!”
“We are a strong and unified group, from the shareholders to the Board of Directors, to whom I extend my thanks for their confidence in me, and everyone who works for Granitifiandre throughout the world," continued Verdi. "Along with innovation and on-going improvement to our products from both the technological and designer aspects, these are the foundations upon which we have built our leading position and with which we will proceed towards our development goals.”
The executive’s return as the group’s top manager coincides with another positive fact, the enterprise has been chosen by the Government’s General Commission to take part in the construction of the Italian Pavilion at the World Exhibition, which will take place in Shanghai in 2010. The intention is to create a construction that’s an example of the excellence achieved by the “Made in Italy” concept throughout the world.
Quoted on the Stock Exchange, the Granitifiandre Group is world leader when it comes to manufacturing and marketing porcelain stoneware slabs as an alternative to quarried marble and granite. Thanks to a business partnership, Technokolla is part of the Granitifiandre Group and is considered one of the most important Italian manufacturers of grouting, bonding agents for the building trade and tile adhesives.
