Furla was founded in Bologna in 1927 by Aldo Furlanetto to initially deal with the distribution of products and fashionable ladies' accessories via wholesale. In 1955, the first Furla store was opened in Bologna, nowadays still operating. Starting from the 70s, Aldo Furlanetto was supported by his children Carlo, Paolo, and Giovanna Furlanetto. In the same decade, Furla released the first collection of bags. At the beginning of the 90s, Furla started to open stores and branches around the world: Japan, the USA, Spain, the UK, Germany, Hong Kong, and China.
In 2008, Giovanna Furlanetto established Fondazione Furla in order to support emerging talents. In 2012, Furla opened its first flagship store in Bangkok, creating a new sophisticated store concept. In 2013, Furla started to manage its distribution in Hong Kong, Macau, and China, and as a consequence, it recorded exponential growth in Asia. In 2015, Furla opened Palazzo Furla in the heart of Milan, Italy’s fashion capital.
In 2018, Furla acquired the manufacturing plant Effeuno Srl in Tuscany; in the same year, Furla’s sales more than doubled up to 513 million euros, and the company finalized the acquisition of the retail distribution network in China.
