Américo Estevens | 1935 – 2016<br />

A life dedicated to Samsung<br />

December 1989 - first million color televisions made in our factory. At this time, we were<br />

exporting to countries like Great Britain, Germany, France, Belgium, Spain, Luxembourg,<br />

Greece, Ireland, Netherlands, Italy and Denmark. Outside the common market, we were also<br />

exporting to Sweden, Norway, Finland, Austria, Yugoslavia, Israel, Switzerland and Angola.<br />

Following 17 years of hard work and dedication, Américo Estevens<br />

retired from the company at the age of 64 years old for health<br />

reasons when he was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. After<br />

successfully defeating the disease, he kept his strong ties to SEP,<br />

being a close presence at SEP office almost every week, as a<br />

consultant, year after year. He always had a smile for every SEP<br />

employee, and was highly regarded by everyone, calling him “Mr.<br />

Américo” with evident and sincere affection.
