"Due to its great knowledge of the local markets, Italo Trading will substantially reduce the distance between our factory in Italy and the Latin American market," stated SGM's area manager, Antonio Parise. "It is a pleasure to welcome a firm with that experience on board."
Italo Trading owner and founder Daniel Costa Salomao started in the pro audio industry in September 1997 working with Selenium Loudspeakers in Brazil.
He then moved to USA to open and manage the company subsidiary and build the Selenium brand. In late 2005 he joined the B-52 Professional family company in Los Angeles. The much-travelled marketeer then moved to Italy to manage International sales for Proel SpA, before deciding to settle in Miami, Florida and set up his own Italo Trading brand marketing company.
Stated Salomao, "It was an organic process to enter the lighting industry as my customers are constantly asking me to recommend lighting products to their projects."
