Our story

September 1969: the economic boom, confidence in a great future. It is in this atmosphere full of energy that Laura and Renato Gandolfo founded our company in Via Solero in Turin.

Three years later he moved to Asti, to breathe the serene industriousness of the Asti town. Since 1974 his son Mauro, after completing his studies, has been working on the growth of the company with growing responsibilities, until he became its Managing Director. 1985 is another milestone: the company moves into new, spacious premises and acquires ownership. The opening of a second store in Alba, a charming and prosperous town in the Langhe, dates back to 1997. In 2000, in order to serve more widespread industrial and professional customers, Gandolfo opened a new store on the outskirts of the city. This is the prelude that will take Gandolfo, in 2003, to its current premises of 2400 square meters with over 30,000 references in stock.

Gandolfo has always been committed to facing the challenge of growing in quality and competence, to offer customers the best of the market through new technologies, with the production of handles that today become a precious collection, demonstrating, day by day, seriousness and respect, fundamental to win the trust of customers. Gandolfo is at the side of those who have been working for more than half a century: we are in the third generation and we are continuing to grow: with work, passion and the iron will of the beginnings.

Since February 2007 Gandolfo has been ISO-9001:2008 certified.

The constant growth of the company is also the result of the wise contribution of Mauro's wife, Rosetta, and his expert agents and collaborators, always ready for comparison and training: these are the people who have made this company a point of reference in the sector. Today, despite being aware of the operational difficulties of every professional sector, Gandolfo offers its handles to the world market, the result of fifty years' experience, confident that the market will appreciate the quality and finish of its Made in Italy products.

"With this new bet and these few lines, I have ideally seen my last fifty years go by: now I feel the need to thank my parents, Laura and Renato, my children Francesca and Michele, my wife Rosetta, the collaborators of the past, who today show us the way from heaven, my agents, collaborators and the whole staff. And to say thank you to our customers who have been following us and stimulating us from the beginning until today". Mauro Gandolfo
