Stefano Dal Cin is the new CEO of Grant S.p.A.
Formerly the president of the high end childrenswear company based in Bologna, Italy, Dal Cin now takes on the role of chief executive officer
The commercial background and the long experience abroad have been determining factors for the appointment of Stefano Dal Cin as the new CEO of the family-run business, activating therefore the first internal generational shift. Dal Cin aims to contribute to the further development of brands, both licensed and directly owned, thanks to an corporate development strategy and an international growth program focused on retail expansion for the next two years. The growth consolidation outside Italy, with a special focus on Europe and the the Far East, and the development of the existing distribution and retail networks envision the opening of two mono-brand stores in two different European capitals within the next two years. The new CEO declared: “I am very enthusiastic about entering the company executive board. My first objective is to give new impulse to production: as early as the next season, the new timing and the innovative structure of the collections will accelerate and will open the doors to a significant development in terms of distribution”.
Among the leading companies present at the new edition of Pitti Immagine Bimbo in Florence, Italy, Grant starts a brand new chapter in 2018 by focusing on a strategy of international expansion and consolidation and a retail portfolio development in Europe as well as strongly incentivising corporate restructuring, already implemented with the appointment of Stefano Dal Cin. Grant S.p.A. is currently focused on the new developments created by new and potential licensing agreements and by the objective of growing its own brands thanks to new distribution agreements in new markets. The Bologna-based company closed the 2016 financial year with a turnover of 18 million euros, stable compared to the previous year.
