For immediate release
From Merehau Anastas
Perles de Tahiti.net
(there are a lot of typos and grammatical errors, some of which I fixed but others I just left in order to not change the gist of the release - Jeremy)
What’s up Doc?
How is the pearl industry of French Polynesia doing?
Is it in deep crisis?
Will Pearls de Tahiti GIE disappear?
A large number of our international partners raise these questions and wait for answers.
It is a fact, like often in dubious times, the microcosm of the pearl industry in Tahiti is currently noisy with a multitude of rumors, more insane ones than others, stressed by a chronically political uncertainty which prevails here since 2004 and carefully propagated with the rest of the world via the Internet.
To that comes to be added a very tense international economic conjuncture, which increases uncertainties and encourages with the wait-and-see policy as: the soaring oil prices, the rise in prices of strategic agricultural goods; the US dollar and the yen steady state face to euro; the failure of Doha Round negotiating groups.
Consequently, it had been at least surprising that Perles de Tahiti GIE was not affected by such confused, local and international, context full with risks, and the representatives of pearl producers organizations, sitting at GIE Perles de Tahiti’s board of directors are worried by the persistent slumps of their goods, just as by the recurring fall of its trading price.
The directors of the board are aware of the problems to be solved and of their responsibilities. As a result, they decided on June to proceed to a complete reorganization of the grouping, at the same time as they fixed the second half-year activity plan, of which the main components are:
On Perles de Tahiti GIE organizational level
• Martin Coeroli’s departure
Decision to end with Martin Coeroli’s position as general manager of the company coming from the board of directors was approved by May 24, 2008 general meeting, with recognition to the excellent work he achieved to build and enforce the top of a range brand image of Tahiti cultured pearls worldwide. But the world around us is moving very fast. Thus, the rise of global market competition lead the board of directors to pass to another phase of development of the product branded Tahiti cultured pearl promotion and marketing and thus of Perles de Tahiti GIE grouping also. Since it was a question of implementing a new strategic direction, this change of management is a common management act.
• The interim management
Meanwhile, in order to palliate to Martin Coeroli’s departure, the board of directors entrusted an interim management to the vice manager, Mrs. Merehau Anastas, supported in that task by a consultant, an expert of French Polynesia pearl industry problems and also a specialist in corporate communication. There is thus a pilot at the helm of the outrigger Perles de Tahiti GIE
• The new strategic directions
With them two, assisted in particular by the team of GIE, their role is to work out a new marketing and promotional strategy of communication for the GIE, and to reconsider as well a new functional organization of the grouping, that they will have to submit to the board of directors by the end of September.
