Idee Partners acquires RGB

April 05, 2022
One of the biggest Tuscan Independent Hubs of Leather Goods, integrated both in the engineering and production activities, is born.

Luca Sburlati, CEO of the Pattern Group, together with Francesco Martorella and Fulvio Botto, founders and majority shareholders of Pattern, commented: 
"With this acquisition we are delighted to announce the establishment of the Tuscan Leather Hub within our Group. We are growing while sticking to our values: we believe in the Italian excellence and in the "know-how" of our people, and we have chosen to invest in both cutting-edge engineering teams and the best Italian manufacturing players. We therefore continue along the path outlined by our industrial project that started in 2017." 

The acquisition of RGB is for Idee Partners the continuation of a strategy started in 2021 with the acquisition of 60% of Petri & Lombardi, historic Tuscan leather goods manufactures with headquarters in Bientina made of about 40 people and a Production Value of over € 2 million in 2021. Both acquisitions aim at the consolidation of one of the biggest Tuscan Independent Hubs in the leather goods sector, integrated into both the Engineering and Production Made In Italy. 

Thanks to this latest acquisition Idee is now able to increase its production power, with a workforce of about 220 employees and a state-of-the-art internal organization structured for production lines. By strategically combining the focus on product development with an impressive direct production capacity, Idee Partners thus becomes a reference player in the leather goods sector in Tuscany.
