Tivoli aims to be manufacturer of choice for US brands
Italian leathergoods supplier Tivoli has set its sights on growth in the US, after buying leathergoods manufacturer Firenze in April and investing in its workforce and processes.
It has recently implemented a ZDHC chemical management system and is exhibiting at Lineapelle New York (July 17 and 18).
It has also invested in the Luxury & Retail MBA at New York University Stern School of Business.
Tivoli Group CEO Stefano Giacomelli suggested US brands are looking to reduce dependency on supply chains in China. "We are looking at the United States as a market of special interest for our business," he said. "The message we want to convey to brands and designers is that they can find highest quality, consolidated experience, flexibility and technological innovation in Italy.
“Investments in recent years have enabled us to strengthen direct control of manufacturing capabilities, increasing the strength of the supply chain, always guaranteeing the same level of quality."
The Tuscan group ended 2023 with a turnover of €54.5 million, up from €50 million in 2022.
