In these 20 years, the brand has grown to become one of the most emblematic brands in Safilo's contemporary and premium offerings, with a strong appeal to both men's and women's consumers, and with still many opportunities for growth both in its main U.S. market and in the rest of the world," said Angelo Trocchia, chief executive officer of Safilo Group.
