After the acquisition of Negri Bossi by AuSable in March 2014, the brand was repositioned along with a total restructuring of management both in Italy and the rest of the world. The positive results have been apparent with more than a doubling of sales since the purchase, a dramatic increase in inventory turns and a substantial reduction in the working capital employed to support the business.

A key to the business’s success has been the reduction in the extensive product line previously offered along with the introduction of new, more targeted and competitive products that have been well received in the market place. Such disciplines as sales, marketing, engineering and purchasing have been revamped at Negri Bossi with positive results as the Company has continued to grow.
