Since 1990 leader in the world of creative eyewear design VANNI takes on the form of a “Società Benefit” (Benefit Corporation), a corporate typology (introduced in Italy by law) that applies to the companies that pursue objectives of common good- beyond those of profit- in their corporate purpose.

“For us, the pandemic has constituted a moment to redesign and rethink” states the president of VANNI, Giovanni Vitaloni. “From here came the urgency to bring about, through the activities of the company, an improvement in both the social and environmental impact we produce. It is not a surface-level makeover, but rather an undertaking of substantial responsibility, to make it measurable and visible.

“AT VANNI We Care” is a new way of seeing our company, and how we operate” continues Alessandra Girardi, co-owner of VANNI: “being sustainable today for us means managing, with attention and care, the effects of our activities: engaging for fair working conditions that place people at the center; minimising the environmental impact of the glasses we produce, starting from design; encouraging the spread of positive and responsible practices to the Italian eyewear sector as a whole, a pride of made in Italy.
