Company Background

The Ermenegildo Zegna Group is one of Italy’s most successful family companies. Since 1910, Zegna has evolved from luxury textile production to ready-to-wear and expanded across the world as a luxury lifestyle group. Privately owned, it is now led by the third generation of the family with Gildo as CEO and Paolo as Chairman. While the Ermenegildo Zegna brand remains the engine of the Ermenegildo Zegna Group, the company has seized opportunities to expand its portfolio with the acquisition of global brands.

Business Activities

The Ermenegildo Zegna Group continues to evolve. What began as a small wool mill in the Northern Italian town of Trivero in 1910 has become one of Italy’s most dynamic family businesses. The Group’s global expansion has been accelerated through a comprehensive strategy of verticalization, shrewd diversification, as well as brand extensions and licensing, creating a Global Luxury Brand that now includes men’s and women’s wear, ranging from clothing to accessories. As a growing business, the Ermenegildo Zegna Group continues its strategic expansion. Via acquisitions and other ventures, we plot a course for the future that is guided by the same pioneering enterprise that has characterized the Group since the very beginning, kept alive by the third generation at the helm of the company today.
