Quintana Quintana Corp.
About us | Quintana Quintana Corporation was established in 1962, when founder Benjamin Quintana Quintana, his mother Victorina Quintana, and Sister Maria Antonia Quintana, acquired a small custom jewelry distributorship and developed it into what is now a master distributor of timepieces, consumer electronics and general merchandise. Prior to establishing the Company, Mr. Quintana worked with in his father's business, Quintana Hermanos, wholesaling food staples to grocery stores in Puerto Rico. Mr. Quintana drew upon his previous business experience when he decided to acquire and develop the jewelry business. Initially, the Company began distributing imported jewelry and religious items from Spain. It was not until the late 1970's that the Company began distributing watches, one of the Company's best selling items today. In the years that followed, the Company would undergo many changes before it grew into the dynamic and specialized business that it is today. In the late 1970's the Company started distributing Equity, Orient watches, Timex watches and Westclox clocks. In 1982, Casio introduces the digital watch, which immediately gains popularity. QQC begins importing the product and becomes the exclusive distributor for Casio watches in Puerto Rico. In 1987 his eldest daughter Ana Quintana, begins to support the Company's management groups and becomes the General Manager in 1989. In 1994, Benjamin Quintana Jr. Joins the Company's management team. Quintana Jr. Consolidates and expands the export business within the Caribbean islands and takes it beyond. In 1997, the Company opens an authorized Casio service center, called Second Chance. In 1999, QQC makes a major investment to improve the Company's efficiency by installing a modern computerized management information system. Today, QQC distributes its products to mom and pops, retail stores and large retail chains in Puerto Rico and abroad, positioning itself as a dominant distributor in the timepiece, electronics, and small appliance wholesale industry. As a result of savvy business strategies, hard work, and dedication to make the Company succeed, Quintana Quintana Corporation now serves over 1,000 active customers. Plans to expand its customer base in other regions are a priority for the Company. |
