Las Vegas, NV & Hong Kong, Nov. 29, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 12 ReTech Corporation (OTCQB: RETC) announced today that it has
opened a technology showroom in Zurich, Switzerland, partnering with Pietro Coppola, who has assumed a management role in our
subsidiary 12 Europe, AG. This will allow the Company to demonstrate the fully integrated 12 Technology Suite to European luxury
brands and their retail partners. The Company intends to use this showroom to demonstrate the value proposition that the 12Mirror,
12AdScreen and the 12InStore, 12Mobile and 12Sconti APPs offer to retailers.
Angelo Ponzetta, 12 ReTech’s CEO stated, “We have created an impressive venue for showing off our technology.
Pietro Coppola will now use his European contacts in the luxury retail sectors to attract interest in our products and value
proposition. This will give us the opportunity to work with Europe’s most famous luxury brands as well as their retailers.
Angelo Ponzetta continued, “The new facility was conceived to become a much-talked-about showroom for European
luxury goods and high-end fashion. It will feature dressing rooms and retail displays in a 2,000+ square feet floorspace. We plan
to cycle brands to constantly feature new ideas for the visiting retailers. We will integrate our 12 Technology Suite into the
fabric of the showroom operations so that leading designers can show their fashion collections using a new medium (by appointment
only). This represents an excellent way to get in front of Europe’s prestigious retailers and show them how our technology can
provide value to their businesses.”
Pietro Coppola, 12 Europe’s CEO said, “After reviewing the 12 Technology Suite I am very impressed for what it
can do to help retailers bring back excitement to their stores. It engages shoppers, potentially lowers retailer’s operating
expenses and helps to achieve higher sales. I am looking forward to introducing the 12 ReTech’s technology to the retailers and
luxury brands that I personally have been working with for decades. This can be wonderful for my clients. I want to introduce all
of them to these ideas that I believe will provide great benefit to their businesses.”
Angelo Ponzetta finished, “There is a lot going on in our pipeline of business in all three of our major
markets. I hope to soon have some exciting news about some new acquisitions that we are negotiating.”
About Pietro Coppola:
After graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree, Pietro worked for various retailers of luxury goods brands in
Europe. In a stint with Anteprima Diffusione Moda A.G., he was involved with the expansion of Swiss sales channels for many
European brands of men’s underwear, including Armani, Versace, La Perla and others. Later, he bought into the company and obtained
licenses for the same brands for Austria and Germany.
In 1995, he formed the fashion agency Pietro Coppola, A.G. and took over the brands from Anteprima, expanding at
the same time into sportswear, beachwear and accessories with the same brands, while adding new brands to his portfolio, including
Dolce & Gabbana, Versace Sport, Fendi, Kenzo, Fiorucci, Emilio Pucci and others.
Pietro helped many of these brands to design and build their own standalone retail stores within his licensed
territories.
