Altima was instrumental in the successful launch of Gracida Polo. With very little time notice, they brought in top luxury brands which we hope to continue working with. The video production was phenomenal! We will be using the segment for our marketing needs.”

Maribel is not only a close personal friend, but was an excellent business partner. I enjoyed traveling the world with Maribel promoting the luxury brands and service companies before we went our separate ways. I continue to look forward to receiving news of her clients and new ventures.

As President of Chopard USA, I hired Maribel Alvarez from 2000 to 2002 to assist us with public relations and community outreach for the opening of the Chopard Boutique on Worth Avenue, Palm Beach. Maribel delivered great results, with significant local printed and TV coverage, as well as many valuable introductions in the community, both with private customers and prominent local charities. Thanks to their efforts, the launch and inauguration of this important boutique was a resounding success.

I have used PR companies all over the world opening stores in London, New York, and San Francisco. If ultra-high-net-worth individuals and social magnates is what you are seeking for your business then Altima is simply first class all the way.

They are excellent organizing every part of the event, from catering to valet parking, but their real strength is is the magic of their golden Rolodex which allows one to become a part of the Palm Beach social community in no time. In our second season our business is going from strength to strength! Anyone can have a wonderful list of great people; the difference is when Maribel and Candace invite them they want to come!

Altima International is by far the most professional public relations team  I have ever worked with. Their attention to detail is clearly reflected in the flawless events they produce.  They are more than a PR firm, they have impressive relationships and they deliver the audience Tsars Vodka targets.

Congratulations Maribel and the Altima team! I was happy to support you when you asked me three weeks ago, but I am know impressed you raised close to $200,000 for this great cause!

Since Black River Caviar retained Altima International early 2011, sales have doubled. The principals’ impressive personal relationships have been instrumental in achieving these results. Retaining Altima International was one of the best business decisions I have ever made.

I have known Maribel Alvarez since my early days as Mayor of West Palm Beach, as her company, Altima International has been instrumental in the developments of downtown West Palm Beach. Her tireless efforts are reflected in the results she delivers to her clients as well as her commitment to the community, which she is actively involved with and donates her time to. Maribel and her company are highly respected by the community. Altima has a reputation for hosting impeccable events…

Maribel’s international education, marketing experience and dedication to quality has earned her the unique ability to parlay her social connections and savvy into a business model. She understands how to market exclusive destinations and luxury goods and services in a ‘subtle’ but efficient way to her discerning audience. As a friend and client, I am truly impressed with how she has managed to cater to both clients and audience, without compromising either’s integrity.

Maribel and her team have been helping us since December 2000 when we opened our Palm Beach boutique! Her suggestions and help have always been creative, fun and in synch with the sophistication of Pucci. Thanks to her personal contacts, we have enlarged our client base and enjoyed meeting different kinds of people.

Maribel Alvarez is the Palm Beach version of Holly Golightly. Like the bohemian “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” heroine, she connects with the insanely rich with a quick wit and street smarts. Sales are all about relationships, and Maribel has them.
