The Calzedonia Group is vertically integrated and deals with all phases of the chain, from production through to sale to the end consumer. Today, from 66% to 83% of the products we sell are manufactured in our plants.
The Italian sites of Verona, Avio and Castiglione delle Stiviere deal with the design process.
Production is entrusted to the Group factories in Italy, Croatia, Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia, Sri Lanka, Bosnia and Ethiopia.
The whole of production converges at the logistics hubs, which supply the direct and franchised sales outlets.

Because ownership of the plants makes it possible to coordinate manufacture with other phases of the chain ensuring total devotion to the Group's needs and the elimination of intermediaries. This means that high quality can be maintained at accessible prices.
Our approach to sensitive topics is described in the Group’s Code of Ethics.
