5.25.20 On The Frontlines - David Otto/Tovari BV - Holland

5/25/2020

In this week’s episode of Seat Yourself and our mini-series On The Frontlines, we circle back around to catch up with David Otto from Tovari to get an update on the Dutch hospitality market and where it stands as it begins to open up.

Additionally, we discuss with David the projects that Tovari has been working on during the lockdown period, including a gorgeous new catalog, a brand-new Amsterdam showroom and a concept that David is calling "100% European-Made"

While the hospitality business has been quiet these past 2-3 months, the team at Tovari has been very active and we are not at all surprised.

4.6.20 On The Frontlines - David Otto/Tovari

4/6/2020

This week, we travel to Europe as we speak with David Otto from Holland’s Tovari company. In our conversation with David, we discuss the current COVID-19 situation in Holland and the surrounding European countries, along with what David and his colleagues at Tovari are doing to prepare for when the HoReCa business returns.

You may recognize David and Tovari from our interview that we did last year with him and Tovari owner Ivar van Riel. Their company represents some of the very best hospitality tabletop products and does an especially great job at merchandising in both their own catalogs and brochures, along with their showrooms and trade fair stands.

Once again, our intention in each of our On The Frontlines conversations is to get expert commentary on what is happening in a particular market or region of the world. And we also want to understand what leaders are doing now to prepare for their eventual return to normal business conditions – whatever “normal” may mean then.

The reason we’re sharing ideas on actions others are taking is so that we can all learn from each other. After all, we are ALL in this together.

That’s the greatness of the hospitality industry. Now, more than ever, we continue to stand together.

Thank you for joining our podcast this week on Seat Yourself’s “On The Frontlines” mini-series, featuring this week’s guest – David Otto.
