AngloINFO Tuscany launched in July 2007 with franchisees Emma and Sarah Downey.
Emma and Sarah are sisters from Derry City in Northern Ireland and both left home to study in England. From there they spent a year together in Nantes, France. Emma stayed on in France and went to work with the Thales Defence Group in Paris while Sarah returned to England to take up a career in engineering.
Three years down the line in Paris, Emma discovered AngloINFO as a result of a career change, which brought her to work in sales with Karen and Geoffrey Dys, franchisees of AngloINFO Paris. By this time Sarah had moved to Italy and when their mother had the bright idea of setting up AngloINFO Tuscany, the pair jumped at the chance.
Sarah’s previous experience of moving to and discovering Italy, combined with Emma’s knowledge drawn from her sales experience in Paris has been invaluable to the set-up.
Working together will be a first for them and if they don’t kill each other they may even make a success of it!
