Silvania prepares comeback

The new owners of Spumante Silvania, a sparkling wine company, are planning to re-launch their own products and boost production this year. “Shortly after privatisation in August 2004, the company got a capital inflow of around 720,000 euros, which allowed us to start a programme of rehabilitating production facilities, re-launching production to attain a nominal production capacity (3,000,000 bottles/year) within three years, and start making more than 30 new products,” said Gheorghe Tripon, Spumante Silvania’s executive manager. In order to boost sales, one of the company’s most important goals for this year is the creation of a national sales network. “We will hire more than 20 agents who will have all the logistics they need at their disposal. They will boost the sales of the authorised dealers throughout the country,” Tripon added. ZF
