Happy Anniversary! Botto Giuseppe is celebrating its 140th anniversary
On this important occasion, we met Silvio Botto Poala, the driving force behind the historical company, to whom we asked how he evaluates so much history.
With its 140 years of history Botto Giuseppe is a fourth generation company in the production of textiles. For other products, such as knitting yarns, we can be considered relatively young being only active in this field for six years but already with very positive results.
Enviable position today, being an example of textile culture. What is the secret?
Like all textile companies that have an important past, the secret is to keep your own specific values, learning from past experiences but looking carefully to the future. In our business changes are inevitable and it is necessary to look for more ideas and new incentives to grow and be aligned with the reality of the market.
Botto Giuseppe is located in a high density area of excellence where so many beautiful products are created.
Excellence is knowledge passed down from generation to generation, which allows, through research and the work of all, workers, managers, entrepreneurs, to improve more and more the products in several aspects, not just the economic/manufactural but especially those related to style/ innovation and ethical/environmental.
Italy as a starting point to be a world market leader. What is the path?
Italy is recognised as a leading country for fashion and for the development of innovative products. But today this is not enough anymore, we need a good sales organisation and increasing management efficiency and effectiveness. In the competing markets, there cannot be creativity if not accompanied both by quality recognised by the market and by the the reliability of the company.
