New partner for F&O – Opticians Together project
After the last two entries in the non-property joint-venture no more than 3 months ago, Optotrades and Free Optik are already preparing to welcome the fifth group which has decided to join the F&O - Opticians Together project.
The new partner is Altolivello, an Italian group with 35 outlets mainly located in the Puglia region. With this new entry, F&O will increase its distribution throughout Italy and, what is more important, it will benefit from new ideas, experience and skills.
F&O's increased growth will bring more advantages for its members and consequently also for end-users and suppliers, who will not only benefit from increased business, but they will also be able to streamline their interaction with individual groups thanks to centralized commercial relationships.
Clearly, the Executive Team responsible for managing F&O's constant search for increasingly positive partnerships and consisting of company presidents Anna Paola Ugolini of Optotrades, Sandro Kichelmacher of Free Optik, Ricardo Abellan of Pro-Visìon and Franco Marsili of the ProVision Group will benefit from the experience and professionalism of Altolivello president Roberto Giampaolo.
Together they will contribute to driving the great F&O machine on the market.
F&O - Opticians Together is the second largest company in Italy's Optics sector in terms of number of clients and specialist outlets. Its constant growth dictates increasingly ambitious objectives which, in the medium-to-long term, should make F&O the leader of the Italian market and give it greater clout in Europe as a whole.
