In 1957 Landa Sabatini decided to invest on her passion for fashion and to open a factory in Peccioli: the Sabatini, which was later renamed Giuntini, was born. In the first years the company specialized in knitwear production, whose quality justified its big success.

In October 2020 Giuntini was acquired by Florence S.p.A., a group leaded by Francesco Trapani and born just earlier with the aim to become «the first productive pole of luxury clothing in Italy». The Group also acquired other two important Tuscan companies, Ciemmeci Fashion s.r.l. and Mel’s Maglieria s.r.l., which it holds the entire property. The Florence S.p.A. will be controlled by a consortium leaded by VAM Investments, for the 65 %, and by the founding families of the three companies.
In April 2023 the company announced the extension of the Peccioli factory. The new building will host a new tailoring division and a school dedicated to professions of fashion, which will train at least 15 people every year. The aim of the institution is to guarantee the generational change in haute couture and to create new job opportunities in the area.
