The proceeding was taken from the Vento USA Corporate ABOUT US (http://www.vento.com/pub/usa/about_vento.asp?zone=EUA) Page.
Since 1996, Vento has been dedicated to supplying people around the world with high value motorcycles. In the early stages we imported products from the top manufacturers in the industry. Vento’s reputation has grown in such short time due to its distinctive design characteristics and quality.
In 1998 an assembly plant in Laredo, Texas was established. This plant was built with the purpose of elevating the quality of our products in order to compete in the marketplace with manufacturers here and abroad.
Our corporate office located in San Diego, California is where various operations varying from product design and development to customer support take place. Vento’s sales organization is structured in the United States through a network of 175+ Vento Dealers in more than 30 states; there are more than 300 Vento outlets worldwide. FY 2003 sales in the United States totaled 17,840 units. A sum of 77,600 Vento motorcycles were sold that same year in Chile, Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Mexico and Venezuela, Russia and Puerto Rico combined. (Includes Highway Motorcycles, Scooters, Utility and ATVs)
2003 sales exceeded $114 Million USD including exports and domestic sales, making Vento the fastest-growing motorcycle company in America.
Our approach in the United States market includes the introduction of recently developed products in the 150cc to 500cc engine displacement range, implementation of financial services at both dealership and consumer levels, as well as, major expansion of our warranty program. Also for this year, we will be producing motorcycles in both, our Laredo, Texas and China plants simultaneously. This project was initiated due to the increasing demand of our products and limited production capacities for our export markets.
Thanks to our high quality, Vento products are approved by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (DOT), and certified by both the EPA and the California Air Resources Board, meeting the strictest emission regulations. Our solid effort in using the newest technologies make this possible and it reflects in our mission of providing people with first-class motorcycles at affordable prices.
