Hundreds of entrepreneurs in the valley, with thousands of employees, were engaged in this sector, expression of Made in Italy. The innate Vittore’s curiosity, combined with his entrepreneurial spirit, led him to found a company which carried out work for third parties, as part of the articulated chain of the handles production.
