Dear All,
this festive season, our pleasant evenings to exchange greetings will not be possible.
It is the natural conclusion of this difficult year, which has put the health and financial security of so many people to the test.
As you are all aware, we have been badly damaged by the closure of shops and factories the situation has caused; and as if the COVID emergency were not enough, a few weeks ago in Ethiopia, conflict erupted between the local and national governments, as you know. Our Italian colleagues have come back home safe and sound, although we have no news of our Ethiopian colleagues, or of the factory, because all connections have been interrupted for the moment.
In this challenging period, we can nevertheless take pride in being part of a company that has the resources and the energy to overcome this situation. Many other industrial and retail companies cannot say the same.
My heart goes out to all those of you who have lost a family member or friend, or who have suffered significantly as a result of this virus.
I am sure this ordeal will be behind us soon, and that this experience will have taught us to really appreciate all those little things in life we take for granted, but that we miss so much when they are gone.
I wish You and Your families a peaceful Christmas and a happy 2021.
