This year marks two important anniversaries in the history of Oniverse’s logistics: the 25th anniversary of our Vallese Distribution Center and the 20th anniversary of our Castagnaro Distribution Center. These hubs have been at the heart of the Group’s growth journey, enabling our brands to expand, accelerate, and reach customers all over the world with the reliability and speed that define us today.
We had the opportunity to celebrate these milestones together: relive the most memorable moments by watching the event video.
The origins of our logistics network date back to the late 1990s, when the Group’s growth made it clear how strategically important it was to manage processes internally to ensure control over lead times, cost efficiency, and rapid market responsiveness.
From this vision, the first Vallese facility was born, which in 2000 became a fully dedicated Distribution Center for Calzedonia and Intimissimi. The “man-to-goods” picking model, simple and highly efficient, proved immediately successful and still forms the foundation of our operational approach today.
In 2005, the development of new brands and new markets required additional capacity: this led to the inauguration of the second center in Castagnaro, replicating the Vallese model and thereby strengthening the performance of the entire network.
Over time, our logistics hubs have supported the Group’s internationalization, ensuring that millions of garments quickly reach stores and e-commerce customers around the world.
Key global milestones include the opening of our first international hub in Brazil in 2012, followed by Croatia (2014), China (2019), USA (2020), Poland (2021), UK (2023), Russia (2025), and Japan (2025). In parallel, over the past decade, additional logistics facilities have been developed across Italy in response to the Group’s strong growth and the expansion of its brands: Gissi (Falconeri), Castel Goffredo (Emé), and Casalmoro (IUMAN).
Each new facility is established with common goals: to bring products closer to the customer, reduce time-to-market, and support e-commerce growth.
Today, the Vallese Distribution Center manages Intimissimi and Signorvino, while Castagnaro coordinates Tezenis, Technical Area, Marketing, and Raw Materials.
Beyond systems and numbers, the true strength of our logistics lies in our people, whose dedication, commitment, and teamwork have made the success of these years possible.
As we celebrate these anniversaries, we look ahead with the same goal as always: to support the growth of our brands, reach customers more efficiently, and provide our teams with tools and environments that continue to evolve.
