Over the last few months we have been refining our marketing to better reflect our company’s direction into the future. After some deliberation, we’ve updated our logo, tagline and decaling on our equipment and signage. It’s not a big change, more a refinement signifying the extra attention to detail and processes we are making at our company.

Effective December 1, 2015, we’ve launched our new website. Not only does our new site reflect the changes to our marketing, we think it communicates a more comprehensive message about our company services and what you can expect by engaging our dedicated and professional team at gmrioux.

We hope you can take a few minutes to browse our site and offer your comments and suggestions. Please note, we now feature a downloadable sales brochure in the resources section of our site that can be used as a quick reference for our services to you, as a valued customer.
