Background/Company philosophy
METALICA was founded in 1995 and now ranks as one of the most reliable importers and distributors in central northern Greece, having simultaneously established an extensive network in the Balkans, providing it with a marked identity as an exporter.
The company's relatively recent involvement in the natural gas field marks the completion of a rapid development in which its fundamental backbone of industrial and plumbing/waterworks items has been enriched with heating and bathroom items after the year 2000. The research carried out by the Trade Department into new competitive items is constant, thus explaining why the company maintains a position ahead in the market, continuously renewing its trading propositions.
A lot has also been invested in the Technical Support section: suitable staffing, a sufficient stock in spare parts and ongoing training for the company's installers with seminars are all backed financially, promoting the company's development. As a result of the company's general presence in the market, turnover in 2004 amounted to 28.5 million (22% increase in comparison with 2003), whilst profits were noted as 1.35 million (55% increase in comparison with 2003).
METALICA, with 60 members of staff, 7.000.000 stock items, 6.000 m2 storage room and 4.000.000 share capital, enters its second decade with confidence in its future ability to further increase its market share, to go in for more ventures, to improve its infrastructure, and to get to know its collaborators better in implementing their own visions.
In the last decade, METALICA's combined work with a company that shares its interests; GIOXAS LTD. (based in Athens and operating since 1955) has forged a trading conglomerate on a nationwide scope. Technological know-how and top performance have enabled the two companies to serve an interminable range of applications.
At the same time, having over the years formed a powerful commercial network; we are able to ensure instant and efficient channelling of all material into the market.
It is our aim, by means of closely following market trends, as well as constantly assessing our suppliers, to be always ahead in the market ensuring that we provide our collaborators with the biggest possible supremacy necessary for the market.
We take every opportunity to innovatively promote new items with a view to facilitate our installers; our trade being conducted on the principle of optimising the relationship between quality and price.
ISO
METALICA HAS BEEN CERTIFIED WITH ISO 9001 BY THE CERTIFICATION BODY TUV
METALICA's certification represents the fact that the company does not just focus on trading items already existing in its extensive range, but that it also seeks to design new items by means of fundamental improvement procedures implementing their technical features.
The company's ISO certification stands for, amongst other things, the standard adherence to criteria, specifications and files in accordance with those of the prototype.
The company has succeeded in further elevating its internal incorporation, organisation and professionalism, all amounting to its ability to constantly move towards improving its service towards the market and to reaffirm its competitive identity.
Moreover, the company's recent certification has also made the company's constant growth official. This fact is evident both in its economic indicators, as well as its daily recognition and reception by the market.
