MoreDE PERE, WI — PDQ Manufacturing, Inc., a manufacturer of touch free carwash systems, has reached a marketing and distribution agreement with Autoequip Lavaggi S.p.A. of Vesime, Italy, a designer and builder of automobile and industrial carwashing systems since 1963, according to a press release.
The Dec. 15 press release said the agreement allows Autoequip Lavaggi to market, distribute and service the complete family of PDQ touch free cleaning systems in the Italian market. Autoequip Lavaggi will also lend support to other distributors of the PDQ LaserJet product throughout Europe as a way to increase its quality of service and capabilities on the continent.
"The agreement between PDQ and Autoequip is a very important one for both parties as it enables PDQ to develop a much stronger commercial presence in Italy by profiting from Autoequip’s widespread network of distributors and agents, as well as after-sales service centers," said Michele Murialdi, owner of Autoequip Lavaggi. "On the other hand, Autoequip is a leading manufacturing company for advanced ‘friction’ car wash equipment and this agreement will complement its product range by adding the market-best touchless system to its rollovers, conveyors and self-serve jet-wash systems."
"The Italian market is an aggressive business environment where carwash owners are always looking for ways to differentiate themselves from their competitors," said Mike Savignac, president of PDQ Manufacturing
