THE GROUP ¬

The Gruppo Centro di Firenze per la Moda Italiana became the leader of the group and all its directly or indirectly owned companies and organizations: Pitti Immagine,  Ente Moda Italia, Efima, Intesa Moda, Fondazione Pitti Immagine Discovery,  Stazione Leopolda, Edifir e Polimoda.

MAJOR HOLDINGS:

Ente Moda Italia (EMI): established in 1983 by the Centro Moda and the Sistema Moda Italia, promotes, disseminates and valorizes Made in Italy abroad by coordinating and organizing Italian manufacturers’ participation in the world’s major clothing fairs.

Efima: Ente Fiere Maglieria e Abbigliamento, organizes fashion trade fairs and events in Milan. Through this company the Group has intensified its strategic cooperation with the Associazione Sistema Moda Italia (SMI), an Efima subsidiary. In 2006 the Group raised its stake – which at 30 September 2005 had decreased from 15% to 4% - to 50% following Efima’s takeover of the Sistema Moda Service, that belonged to SMI. The takeover that was successfully completed in 2006 formally sanctioned the agreement under which Pitti Immagine was put in charge of managing the Milan fairs, whose trademarks were given to Efima.

Edifir: The publishing company Editrice Edizioni Firenze produces books, art books, catalogues, periodicals, posters and brochures. The stake in this company has made it possible to strengthen the business relationship linked to the production of fair and exhibition catalogues.

Polimoda:  is the Istituto internazionale di fashion design & marketing – founded by the Centro Moda and headquartered in Florence. This is a highly strategic investment as it targets the goal of “contributing to the growth of training and developing human resources, research and support services for the companies active in the fashion system”.
