Giorgio Grati

Label of women’s knitwear Collection created in 1970 in Ancona. Originally called Giorgio Grati Tricot, it was not the first business established by the synonymous entrepreneur. On this occasion, however, Grati’s name was at stake and it was an ambitious challenge. The new ready-to-wear line, of impeccable manufacturing and high-profile tailoring proved successful, and developed especially during the 1980s. The firm became a shareholder company. It entered the market sectors of shirts, coats, and jackets and gained excellent results, even in export. In 1989 entrepreneurial success led Giorgio Grati to the presidency of the Small and Medium Companies in Confindustria. In 1991 he obtained the honor of the Labor Knighthood.
