Future Fibres´ is pleased to announce the creation of Future Fibres Italy, a dedicated sales and support office to cater for one of the largest yachting markets in Europe. While Future Fibres already has a strong presence in Italy with long term customers such as Wally Yachts, Future Fibres Italy will focus on bringing the same level of support to all Italian based yards, designers and yacht owners.
Francesco Pizzuto who will be heading up Future Fibres Italy
At the heart of the operation is Francesco Pizzuto who will be heading up Future Fibres Italy. Francesco has supported Future Fibres for a number of years through Velamania, Future Fibres´ existing service agent. His new role is sales centric, fulfilling the increasing demand for high quality composite rigging and carbon spars in the Italian market.
Francesco comments; ‘Future Fibres is an incredibly strong brand both in terms of technology and customer service. Future Fibres Italy aims to convey this to the broader Italian market. We are looking to open the doors to every boat owner, designer and boat yard who wishes to have access to the best available technology.’
Having a dedicated point of sale in the Italy is a logical step for Future Fibres in conjunction with the start up of their mast making business. To date, a large portion of high-end super yachts are constructed in Italy by some of the most technologically advanced and demanding boat yards in the world who seek an equal partner for their mast and rigging requirements. Future Fibres Italy will be able to provide this at a local level with the full support of Future Fibres’ technical expertise.
Ewan Mclellan, CEO; ‘having Francesco come on board is a big step in raising Future Fibres´ presence in Italy. Francesco has a wealth of experience which will allow us to drive all our new and exciting products into one of the most dynamic markets in Europe.’
Future Fibres Italy will work alongside Velamania who remain the Future Fibres Service agents. Velamania’s trained technicians are on hand to support clients and manage all service and after-sales support on Future Fibres’ behalf.
