OMNI PLUS, a real innovation

Interview of Christian Ortega, Vice-President of the Pays de Grasse agglomeration community in charge of economic development

Would you like to introduce yourself?

I am the Mayor of La Roquette-sur-Siagne and Vice-President of the Pays de Grasse agglomeration community in charge of economic development.

What does TOURNAIRE represent in the Grasse ecosystem?

This fine company TOURNAIRE, which I have the honour of being able to visit this evening, embodies the history of Grasse and hence the prospects of Grasse, naturally. With decades of good management, it has proven its ability to adapt to circumstances and to the solutions that need to be designed for the future.

What have you been able to draw from this event?

During this visit, we were able to see all the OMNI PLUS developments. Success cannot be achieved if there is no real ambition. This ambition must also be supported by funding. Over the last few years, this has amounted to ten million euros. OMNI PLUS production has been a real innovation for the clientele, who are loyal to the company. But to achieve loyalty, you have to offer new solutions and adapt to customer demands. You have to be sure that the product is really adapted to what the customer is going to market here in Europe and throughout the world.

A word for the industrialists of the Grasse region?

I’m here as Vice-President of the Pays de Grasse agglomeration community in charge of economic development, and I must say that we’re fortunate in our region in having the Mayor of Grasse, Mr. Jérôme Viaud, as President of the agglomeration community. He has always understood that the economy of the businesses in the Maritime Alps – and in particular in his region – is essential for success. The communities, the municipalities, the town halls, and others are not producers of funds: they use the money that has been granted to them by the quality of the businesses and services on our territory.
