New York, December 05, 2015 – Ideoli has extended its global manufacturing footprint to Mexico by partnering in an office in Guadalajara, one of the country’s largest cities and center for manufacturing. The company’s Co-Founders, George Stroumboulis and Chris Hartswick, were thrilled to have established this footprint in the heart of Mexico in late 2015 so that they can better design, produce and deliver custom fixtures, furnishings and lighting products to serve their retail, restaurant, hospitality and commercial clients in North and South America. As a whole, Mexico has become a major player in the global economy, with the 11th largest population on Earth and a growing manufacturing sector. “Mexico is a strategic location for Ideoli and its clients because of its close proximity to the United States, its advanced manufacturing capabilities and a design flare second to none,” says Stroumboulis, Ideoli’s Co-Founder and CEO. “As our clients continue to grow in North and South America, Ideoli needs to be in Mexico to help support their expansion goals.” In addition to establishing its strong manufacturing footprint in Mexico, ideoli has developed “a powerful network of subcontractors,” says Hartswick, Ideoli’s Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer. Ideoli is proud to work with these partners that have a commitment to world-class quality, and these subcontractors also see the value in Ideoli’s work. “Ideoli is a competitive company, a visionary company. They have the capabilities to achieve any contract,” says one of Ideoli’s specialist manufacturing partners in Guadalajara. Ideoli has helped make the world a smaller place for its clients by understanding key international markets and establishing a business presence that matters, including with this new location in Guadalajara, Mexico.

New York, December 01, 2015 – Custom fixtures and furnishings company Ideoli has opened new offices and an assembly factory in Shanghai in order to develop a strong footprint in the strategic manufacturing market of China. China is strategic to Ideoli’s business model because it is the manufacturing center to the world, and Ideoli’s Co-Founders George Stroumboulis and Chris Hartswick have decided to establish footprints in key markets around the world to allow for a targeted approach when producing and creating custom products for their clients. Ideoli is able to use its Shanghai facilities, launched at the end of 2015, along with its strong network of subcontractors, to maintain full control of the manufacturing cycle, starting from incoming component inspection to final quality control. “When it comes to manufacturing, two of the biggest concerns are the quality of the product and making sure you can deliver the product on time,” says Chris Hartswick, Ideoli’s Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer. “That’s why we’ve built an experienced team of project managers, engineers and logistics professionals to ensure that we can manage these concerns on the ground. Ideoli’s leadership has been embedded in manufacturing in Asia for nearly a decade, establishing strong relationships with key people in the area, setting up dozens of factories and overseeing the efficient production for hundreds of thousands of lighting and related products. With its local operations in Shanghai, ideoli has decreased the overall production turnaround time from start to finish. “We pride ourselves on how quickly we can take a new product idea, generate physical samples, get customer approval and move into full production – all in a matter of weeks,” says George Stroumboulis, Ideoli’s Co-Founder and CEO.
