MIRAMAR, FL--(Marketwire - February 23, 2011) - Granite Transformations, a division of Trend USA with facilities and showrooms around the world, celebrates a decade of business success in North America with the announcement of the 10 Years/10 Days in Italy contest, which will provide one Granite Transformations customer the trip of a lifetime. The winner of the contest will have 10 spectacular days in Venice, Italy, including a tour of the Orsoni Factory, where the art of glass mosaic is taught.
In the 10 years since landing in North America, Granite Transformations has been chosen as the remodeling provider for consumer's homes, office spaces, as well as restaurants, boats and recreational vehicles. As a way to honor customers for choosing Granite Transformations for their renovation needs, the 10 Years/10 Days in Italy contest will be given to a customer who has used Granite Transformations for a project in their current home or to a new customer going through the installation process prior to the completion of the contest.
"Granite Transformations provides products that celebrate Italian artistic tradition, as well as showcase creative innovation," explains Andrea Di Giuseppe, CEO of Trend Group, parent company of Granite Transformations. "We have spent the past 10 years installing commercial and residential applications in North America and are excited to be able to provide one of our loyal customers an opportunity to see the inspiration behind the Trend products we provide in our showrooms."
