Letter to the Editor
December 2, 2011
It was very nice to see you again at MoOD, but unfortunately we had not enough time to talk to you about our future plans that we already started to realize.
Our company Metridis, as you know, is since 1927 in Greece and we are already in the 4th generation. The crisis in Greece is very deep, so we have thought to expand our activities in the Balkan countries and the East European countries. We have already started to have agents in different countries with basic target to open showrooms of our company to these countries. We are very close to succeed in this goal in Albania, Bulgaria, Romania, and other countries and we will continue to the other countries.
Our basic “weapon” is the fantastic upholstery fabric MAGICAL, which we buy from our friend Mayer Zeiler of Flocktex (its designs and its unique technical characteristics have been explained to you analytically from Mr. Zeiler in the Fair).
From the beginning of this year, our export department that we have built, has managed to export to countries like: Italy, Spain, France, Poland, Albania, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Tunisia, Dubai, Qatar. In our field, we are the only Greek company who is doing exports. In order to support exports, we have established another new warehouse, which has more than 1.500.000€ of products and which we use exclusively for the exports.
Your friend,
George Metridis
