Houston, TX - Recently, top level executives visited the Rigid Global Industries operations is Shijiazhuang, a city in the Hebei Province of China. The executives included Alex Ghodsi, CMO, Chairman of the Board; Bowen Lo, COO; Steve Olson, Exec. VP; and Carrie Miller, PR& Marketing Mgr.
The primary focus of the trip was to meet with executives at the company’s China operations for strategic planning sessions, and included tours of the steel fabrication plant and of the plants of several associated companies. Those associated companies included tool and die/stamping operations as well as pharmaceutical accessories manufacturing. All executives of Rigid Global commented on the innovativeness and unwavering dedication to the success of each of the operations by its directors and employees. Visits to completed projects and some still under construction were also part of the agenda. The highlight of the jobsite visits was the single family home development in a land of high rise construction. This unique project features a private villa development of 500 homes complete with a winding lazy river and several large square footage community and recreation centers located throughout the development.
The trip was not all business for the executives as it included sightseeing visits to the Great Wall of China, the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square and notable Olympic venues from the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.
