An italian love story
The future Ferruzzi couple meet in a leather shop in Florence around the mid-1970s. He comes from the shoe industry, she comes from embroidery. They both left their previous jobs because they felt a deep need for something new and growth.
Two universes of high Italian manufacturing are therefore measured on a new playing field. They fall in love and decide to start this journey by themselves. It is 1978.
We do what makes us Happy
At the beginning, the Ferruzzi leather goods created bags on behalf of third parties working for the great brand that fed the entire Florentine supply chain of the time, but the turning point was not long to come. The two begin to meet well-known designers and convince one of them to design for them.
The first sales under the Gino Ferruzzi brand take place in hotels in Florence, where the public, especially Japanese, is looking for stylistic and executive perfection.

is stay faithful
Gino Ferruzzi bags are appreciated and brought everywhere. From the first three stores in Florence, it soon reaches 1300 customers all over the world. From hotel suites to international trade fairs.
