Agreement between Optocoop Italia-Oxo and other European groups

An agreement has been reached and signed for an international cooperation, whose legal status complies with European laws, between Optocoop Italia-Oxo and other European business groups for a new and shared strategic positioning at international level.

The backdrop for the event was Milan's Hotel Michelangelo where the chairmen of the following groups in the optics sector met: Optocoop Italia-Oxo, Federopticos (Spain), OptiTrade Holding BV (Netherlands), AMA-Hellas (Greece), AMA-Optik (Germany) and AMA Ltd. (Great Britain).

The main objective of this new international group is to identify a shared alternative strategic positioning at European level, which would aim at improving its competitive position on the retail market and increase negotiating powers with suppliers, but without jeopardizing the independence of members within their own countries.

The main aims of the agreement:
- experience exchange;
- transfer of know-how;
- training development and exchanges;
- development of marketing models in the European context;
- establishment of shared service models in the European context.
