Where we come from

In 1995 we sold giftware.

The founders already came from the artistic giftware trade. The company grew quickly into one of the Italian reference points for importing and distributing home decoration.

Then came the thing that changed the job: instead of buying through a middleman, the group put its own offices where the goods are made.

Direct presence

Three offices, not three suppliers.

Three offices with complementary roles, coordinated with each other and with the Italian headquarters.

    Asia headquarters

    Our main operating base in Asia coordinates suppliers in northern and eastern China and supports sample selection, product development and quality control.

    Trade fair support

    Close to one of the main international trade fair hubs, it supports the Group during industry fairs and in its operating activities in southern China.

    Operating base in Fujian

    It follows the suppliers and production in the Fujian area directly, keeping a constant link with the Group’s other offices and with the Italian headquarters.

The people who follow the cycle from order to loading are group staff. That is the difference between an importer and a group that is really there at the factory.

Energy

The roofs power the warehouses.

The photovoltaic plant covers the warehouse roofs. What it produces makes the site self-sufficient: this is not a purchased offset, it is electricity generated where it is used.

  • Installed on the roofs, not on the ground
  • Declared self-sufficiency for the site
  • No additional land taken
