Brand properties

General info :
B&B Italia is the brand name used by B&B Italia SpA, an Italian modern furniture company whose products are sold worldwide.

The company was founded in 1966 by Piero Ambrogio Busnelli, and is owned by his descendants who manage the company. On March 1, 2011, the Busnelli family became majority shareholders of the company once again and now own 100% of the shares.

The United States subsidiary, B&B Italia USA, Inc., is located in Manhattan, New York in the Architects and Designers Building above their American flagship store in midtown.

B&B Italia has won four Compasso d'oro (Golden Compasses), the most prestigious Italian Design award. In 1979 Le Bambole Mario Bellini, 1984 Sisamo Studio Kairos, 1987 Sity Antonio Citterio, and in 1989 B&B Italia became the first company to be recognized with a Compasso d'oro directly awarded to a design manufacturing company. Since 1966 there have been over 1,000 B&B Italia designs (including prototypes).

Over 3% of B&B Italia's annual sales is reinvested in research and development. In 2010, a foaming department for upholstery was established with an investment of 4 million euros.

From the entry of The Carlyle Group into Investindustrial's design plan, Design Holding was born in September 2018 with the aim of creating the Italian hub of high-end interior design and then becoming it internationally. The brands already controlled by Investindustrial are part of the new company, led by Gabriele Del Torchio: Flos, B&B Italia and the Danish Louis Poulsen.

The B&B Italia group owns the B&B Italia, Maxalto, Azucena and Arclinea brands and reached 201.4 million in revenues in 2019 with exports accounting for over 80%. Sales in 80 countries through a network of 10 flagship stores, 70 single-brand stores and 1000 resellers.
