LANCASTER, Ohio, Feb. 18, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EveryWare Global, Inc. (Nasdaq: EVRY ) welcomed thousands of buyers, innovators, and industry leaders this week at one of the world's largest trade shows for the dining industry. Germany's Ambiente Show boasted nearly 5,000 exhibitors from close to 90 countries and 150,000 visitors interested in consumer goods over four days in Frankfurt.
Led by the iconic Oneida® and Anchor Hocking® brands, EveryWare Global introduced new products, patterns and innovations for foodservice and retail channels. The Company showcased Oneida's® new Perimeter dinnerware line for foodservice, featuring a revolutionary design that is significantly lighter than most other porcelain dinnerware and popular with cruise lines, hospitality and dining establishments. Anchor Hocking® kicked off the show with the introduction of the IJ Collins glassware and heritage jug, which received rave reviews from show attendees.
With a full range of consumer and foodservice products on display, including dinner service, glassware for catering and tabletop, and flatware and cutlery for home, restaurant and hotel, the EveryWare Global booth at Ambiente demonstrated that a true dining experience is much more than food.
"We are pleased with customer response to our product showcase at the first major trade show of 2015," said Sam Solomon, President and CEO of EveryWare Global. "The integration of two great brands, Oneida and Anchor Hocking, gives us the opportunity to service the entire dining cycle, from food preparation to serving and storage. In addition to our two heritage brands, we bring together a strong stable of brands, including Sant'Andrea®, Stolzle, Buffalo® and Delco®, all of which enhance the visual impact and enjoyment of the dining experience. EveryWare Global has the building blocks to be a powerful player in the industry and we intend to continue driving new design and innovations that deliver a meaningful point of difference for our customers' enjoyment."
