During 2010, the company has placed their water coolers in seven new countries: Switzerland, Austria, Latvia, Morocco, Mexico, Panama and Angola. In addition, Canaletas has increased their presence in France, Germany, Portugal, Finland, Poland and Belgium, through a higher number of distributors and/or the increase of sales to those.

In this context, the company has renewed their image and launched different communication campaigns to search distributors, according to the target countries. As for the products, following their commitments to I+D, C Canaletas has kept on expanding their range of water coolers to adapt to the needs of each market, besides launching more competitive products.  The company also stands out for their flexibility "This allows us- they point out- to adapt to the needs of each country, key aspect, for example, to our penetration in Angola, where, after studying the specific needs of the customer, we make a special water cooler that covers the requirements of this market"

Canaletas plans for 2011 lie in consolidating the established relations with the new distributors and focused their development on those countries where they still have an important potential growth. The purpose to achieve is that the exportations would represent 60% of the total of Canaletas's production, number that means an important challenge for a family company.
