| In 1945, between hunger and the desire to start in a Europe destroyed by World War II, Giovanni Beghetto begins to trade livestock in Italy. They were very difficult years, but thanks to the professionalism, product knowledge and honesty, Giovanni established substantial trade between Austria, Germany, France, Slovenia and Italy. Over 10,000 items at year thanks to a commercial network based primarily on trust. In a time when there was little money in circulation and the contracts were concluded with a handshake, it was necessary to work only with people who kept their word. |
 |
|
| In 1988, Mauro Beghetto, son of Giovanni, began his activity as an agent in Italy for the largest retailer of used offset printing machines based in Switzerland. This intense experience was fundamental to know the printing industry, and the needs of foreign and Italian printers. Switzerland being the center of Europe, Mauro had the opportunity to meet all the major retailers of used printing machines. |
 |
|
| In 2000, Mauro opened his new company, World Graphic Machine Ltd., focusing on the Italian market, not to mention international relations. Here he learned the practice from his father Giovanni, namely the importance of professionalism, product knowledge and business honesty. The underlying thinking that it’s better to make a sale in less, but no one should be able to speak about the work of the company. So years later, with zero complaints, we can say that the reasoning has borne fruit. |
 |
|
| In 2002, it developed the first website of the company, already futuristic for its time, that will have new versions every year, continuing to be still, the first Italian portal for offset printing equipment dealers, and among the first visited in the world. |
 |
|
| In 2005, the seat is changed. We moved to Castelfranco Veneto, with 600 square meters of offices and more than 2,000 square meters of showroom, warehouse, workshop and parts warehouse. |
 |
|
| In 2006 he participated in the first IPEX as an exhibitor with a stand. It strengthens the international network and WGM became the first exporter of used offset printing machines in Italy to the new emerging markets. He continues to learn and enter new markets, each one characterized by one's culture, customs and habits. |
 |
|
| In 2008 he participated in the first Drupa as an exhibitor with a stand. After many visited Drupas, he decides to enter with his own stand where customers can receive all the Italians visiting, the demonstration of Dusseldorf and to further improve international relations with other retailers and especially manufacturers. A considerable investment, makes the WGM in fact the only Italian company in the industry to participate in Drupa 2008 with its own stand. It was worth it! |
 |
|
| In 2009 started working in the business Rui Alberto, grandson of Mauro. With him will open the doors to foreign markets and a boost in marketing services. At times when the credit crunch tightens into a stranglehold on the European economy, it began selling in emerging countries like China, India and South America |
 |
|
| In 2010 during the financial crisis, will give more services to businesses, given the difficulties of the printers to get financing. Therefore we’ve created the annual event at the headquarters of Castelfranco Veneto, the opportunity for printers to wait for training, print sharing for graphics studios that want to print on rented cars, the bag of used to know in real time wich is your machine, selects the EX-new, that shows the best used machines on the market with special safeguards, the Blue Card Club for discounts on spare parts and other products and FSC Certifications. |

|
| In 2011 was closed an agreement with two Italian factories in Milan and Bologna. With these, as well as at its factory in Castelfranco Veneto, the World Graphic Machine srl becomes the first company in Italy by capillarity of technical assistance in the area, counting about 30 technicians. |
 |
|
| In 2012 we participy as an exhibitor at DRUPA perhaps the most awaited by everyone in the industry. The crisis that persists in the world for years has devastated an area, the graphic industry, which needs to renew itself. Just to give new impetus and help companies save money, the WGM after several tests in laboratory and field, develops a new system, specifically for the Heidelberg offset presses, capable of recycling the washing liquid, allowing printing companies to save considerable sums every year. |
