UUCI Opens New Office in the Netherlands
April 7, 2009
TUUCI, a worldwide leader of innovative shade structures, has completed the construction of a European business center in Oisterwijk, Netherlands. The multi-faceted facility enhances TUUCI's position as a global resource for upscale resort, commercial and residential applications.
Spearheading TUUCI's continued growth in Eastern and Western Europe, Africa and the Middle East, the Oisterwijk office features extensive manufacturing capabilities including canvas tailoring and frame customization. Customer support, marketing and brand management teams are responsible for TUUCI's business activities throughout the region, including a high-end retail network that spans Norway to Istanbul.
"The Oisterwijk location greatly enhances every aspect of our international business, from product design and manufacturing through marketing and customer service,"said Dougan Clarke, founder and CEO of TUUCI. "Our product and customer service business model is based on close customer relationships, and this new office assures that we will meet this goal on a global basis."
Often referred to as the ‘Pearl of the Northern Brabant Provence,' Oisterwijk is located 60 miles from Amsterdam, with a four-hour drive time to Paris and five hours to London. The site also is just 55 miles from Antwerp and Rotterdam, two of Europe's largest harbours, which will be utilized by TUUCI.
"Our design aesthetic, attention to detail and focus on marine grade durability have resulted in the adoption of TUUCI shade structures by upscale resorts and hotels and discriminating consumers around the world,"Clarke said. "We envision this new office as not only supporting our international customers, but also keeping us on the cutting edge of design trends from around the globe."
