Anselmo Dionisio

Tie factory founded in 1953 by Vittorio Dionisio. It was originally called Diony’s. In 1977 Vittorio’s son Anselmo took over from his father and added his own name to the business. Current production, which includes ties, bow ties, scarves and foulards for both men and women, totals 250,000 pieces a year. After manufacturing for Versace, Cacharel, Fath and Ginocchietti, it now produces exclusively for its own brand. The annual turnover is about 6 billion liras and the factory employs 33 workers in-house plus 40 outside workers. It exports everywhere in Europe, to the U.S., and Japan. Its premises are in Origgio, Novara.
