History and background of
Bvlgari
|
 |
Italian jeweler and luxury goods retailer Bulgari (usually written "BVLGARI") is named for its founder, Italian Greek emigrant Sotirios Bulgari. The company was founded in 1884 in Rome, Italy. The current flagship store was opened in 1905 by Sotirio's sons Costantino and Giorgio and the store quickly became a place where the world's rich and famous came for the unique, high quality jewelry designs. Although the company made a name for itself with jewelry, today it is a recognized luxury brand that markets several product lines including watches, handbags, fragrances, accessories, and hotels.
Bulgari opened its first international locations in New York City, Paris, Geneva and Monte Carlo in the 1970s. Today Bulgari has more than 150 retail locations worldwide.
In 1984 Sotirio's grandsons Paolo and Nicola Bulgari were named Chairman and Vice-Chairman of the company and nephew Francesco Trapani was named CEO. Trapani's goal to diversify the company was started in the early 1990s with the release of the Bulgari perfume line. Under his tenure the company has established itself as a luxury goods brand recognized throughout the world.
In 1995 the company was listed on the Borsa Italiana. The company has seen 150 percent revenue growth between 1997 and 2003. Currently outside investors hold about 45 percent of the company's stock. |
