THE GOLDEN FLEECE OF ZEGNA. Ermenegildo "Gildo" Zegna is Chairman and CEO of the Ermenegildo Zegna Group, founded in 1910 as a textile company by his grandfather and namesake in Trivero, Italy. Under his leadership, the Group has strengthened its position in high-end menswear and has grown into one of the leading global companies in the luxury sector. In 2011, Zegna was awarded the title of Cavaliere del Lavoro (Knight of Labour) by Italian President Giorgio Napolitano. In 2021, the Ermenegildo Zegna Group was listed on the New York Stock Exchange. "Our vertically integrated "sheep-to-shop" model is unique in luxury. Next year, over 60% of our products will be made in-house." "Personalization is increasingly important: people want something unique and delivered fast." "We are not a conglomerate, but a strong group of luxury brands led by a team that protects our authenticity and unique approach."
