The Ferretti is therefore confirming the absolute quality of the design and construction of its models even on the occasion of this edition of the International Boat Show of Genoa, displaying its 44 years of history, supported by the competitive advantage achieved through the strategic partnership with Weichai, one of the leading industrial groups in China. The Group aims at a further growth in the settled markets of America and Europe, and in the emerging ones, with a special focus on the Asia-Pacific Area, one of the most interesting regions in terms of development opportunities for the nautical sector. In this area, the distribution of crafts produced in Italy will be further increased.
