Over 40 people attended including managers of the main hotels in the area, Girbau president Merce Girbau, key account manager Marti Bargalló, vice president sales, marketing and services Toni Rubies and the subsidiary’s vice president David Arbó and manager Noel Torres.

Girbau has been operating in the Dominican Republic for 18 years.

Merce Girbau said that the opening of the subsidiary underlined the company’s strategy for expansion in markets where it has a high share. It will also allow Girbau to develop closer relationships with customers and offer them an improved service.

The ceremony ended with a visit to the Iberostar’s in-house laundry, which has been fully equipped by Girbau.
