News from the IBEX in Tampa: Guidi America has opened a new warehouse facility in Florida and has promising prospects for growth in the U.S. market
IBEX in Tampa (October 6-8) is now a regular fixture for Guidi, which attends the leading B2B event for the US market through its subsidiary Guidi America (Hall 3, booth 3-1315).
The move of the Genoa Boat Show to October (1-6) has created a date overlap between the two events this year, but this is not expected to happen again: the 2027 edition of IBEX will in turn move later in the calendar, to December.
New location and market opportunities
Guidi America has opened a new warehouse facility strategically located in Sanford, Florida, dedicated to managing supplies and shipments.
In the US market, customer feedback during the first six months of this year has been positive, particularly regarding response times and the timely handling of shipments and order fulfillment. In addition, Guidi products continue to be appreciated for their innovation and quality. Another relevant point is that US boat builders are now interested in our products with NPT threaded components, a new market segment the company is watching closely.
Guidi America continues to grow in the US market. Refitting remains its core segment, but new opportunities are opening up, particularly with the US boat builders. Our presence at IBEX will help us better understand the needs of this market, which we know is very specific, comments Daniele Guidi, Quality and Sustainability Manager.
Guidi America has grown now for the past 3 years, while we continue to grow our presence in the US service sector, we are now expanding into the US boat builders due to the demand for our high-quality material and innovative products. With our new warehouse and personnel, we will be able to continue handling the increased demand of shipments and fulfillment, comments Joseph Schneider, Sales Manager, Guidi America.
