KUCHING: Niro Ceramic Group launched its new showroom at City Square, Jalan Pending here today (May 10).
Its managing director, Ian Kok said the establishment of the new showroom was to serve their clientele in Sarawak by facilitating product demonstration.
“We have always considered the (ceramics) market in Kuching and Sarawak to be an important one, especially seeing the increased construction and development activities in the region.
“With a bigger showroom, we are now able to showcase new products locally, thus eliminating the need for customers to travel all the way to West Malaysia to view them.
“Furthermore, we look forward to being a key player in the growth and development of the tile market in East Malaysia.
“Our group places strong emphasis on innovation, quality, and design, and I hope our Kuching customers can appreciate the products and consider integrating them into their businesses,” he said in a speech during the launching ceremony.
He was also optimistic that another showroom would be set up in Sarawak in the coming years.
Meanwhile, he added that the group is one of Malaysia’s largest tile manufacturers and distributors, currently exporting 26 per cent of their production to seven countries, including China, India, Vietnam and the Philippines.
Also present were chairman of Malaysian Architects Association Sarawak Noraini Narodden, deputy president of the Sarawak Housing and Real Estate Developers’ Association Louis Ting and Niro Ceramic Group Sales Division general manager Go Kean Tat.
