S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 Adhemir Fogassa Maquetes, which currently has an 80% share of the Brazilian scale model market, is investing heavily to find new customers in the United Arab Emirates. In the same year in which the company opened an office in Dubai, in partnership with the Business Centre organized by the Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce<\/b> and the Brazilian Export and Investment Promotion Agency (Apex-Brasil), should also work on its strategy at the Big 5 Show 2008, the main fair in civil construction sector in the Arab world, to take place between November 23rd and 27th this year.<\/p>\n
The maker of scale models will be one of the 37 Brazilian companies to exhibit its products in the Brazil Pavilion, also set up in a partnership between the Arab Brazilian Chamber and the Apex-Brasil. "We chose Dubai as a potential client as it is a great construction site," stated Manoel Caras, the commercial director at Adhemir Fogassa. "Today, undoubtedly, the Middle East is our main market in terms of opportunities abroad," he pointed out.<\/p>\n
According to him, the scale models produced by the company in S\u00e3o Paulo have been exported since the 1980s, mainly to the United States and countries in Europe and Africa. However, foreign sales represent just 5% of monthly production of 45 scale models. According to Caras, production may be expanded by around 50% without the need for expansion of the current team of 175 professionals. "We have clear possibilities of supplying an immediate increase in demand," he guarantees.<\/p>\n
In the market for 35 years, Adhemir Fogassa Maquetes develops scale models for the most varied applications, with investment in technology, teams and innovation bringing the company to leadership in Brazil, with over 6,000 scale models produced to date.<\/p>\n
To develop and execute the projects, the company has an area of over 4,000 square metres, in which it has six assembly workshops, a painting area, carpentry, digital station, machinery park, photography laboratory and landscaping studio. Adhemir Fogassa produces scale models with internal and external lighting, developing electro-mechanic equipment for controlled movement, which makes it possible to view the internal environment, or even remove certain parts in multimedia presentation.<\/p>\n
The architect<\/b><\/p>\n
The company goes by the name of its founder, architect Adhemir Fogassa who was born in Campo Mour\u00e3o, in the north of Paran\u00e1. In 1983, Fogassa changed from mixed art in scale models to sculptures. The same care taken by the scale modeller was transferred to the sculptor when understanding the material, dominating the technique and working the volumes.<\/p>\n
