Got stuff that needs doing in Italy?

A marketing study?

Logistical or financial analysis of some trade opportunity?

Or maybe you just need someone to match you with an appropriate joint venture partner over there.

Luigi Del Riccio is your man.

The Italian marketing and business consultant (shown) was introduced today as Sault Ste. Marie's official go-to guy in Italy.

The participants in our recent trade mission to the Lombardy region of Northern Italy have designated Del Riccio as our Italian trade liason.

Fortunate enough to share his name with the principal financial advisor to the great 16th century Florentine sculptor, painter and architect Michelangelo Buonarroti, Del Riccio is a native of Port Colbourne, Ontario.

He was one of the Italian business representatives who met the Sault delegation during its recent visit to Italy.

Del Riccio was back in Canada on vacation and decided to extend his stay to visit the Sault.

Among other things, he's a former employee of the Tenaris Group, and was working at Tenaris's branch office in Houston at the time of the negotiations to buy Algoma Tubes.

On Wednesday, Del Riccio will meet with members of the Italian Chamber of Commerce of Toronto, which is also involved in the Sault's bid to do more business with Italy.
