The beginning
Fast Fashion
Stars

Lariotex was founded in the heart of Como’s textile district to supply rolls of fabric for printing and dyeing. Our target market is Fast Fashion, with a special focus on polyester and viscose.

Flexibility, speed and a wide range of products in stock ready to be delivered are the key drivers of the company’s successful transition from an intermediary for small and medium-sized businesses to a partner for major converters.

Growth
Integration of the
development model

The business model evolves: direct imports from China increase and the European share decreases.

The company repositions itself more towards luxury fashion and adopts cross-selling strategies. Increased collaboration with customers and suppliers is matched by growth in size, with a consequent move to new headquarters. Research and innovation become important assets for development.

The turning point
Sustainability and
the circular economy

Our focus on sustainability is reflected in the launch of procedures to certify the supply chain and in the creation of sustainable collections.

Timely checks are conducted on purchased fabrics, to guarantee the standards our customers require. The research and development department invests in fabrics made with recycled materials, generating circular economy good practices that the market appreciates straight away.

The new goals
Consolidating our
green activities

The company becomes a joint-stock company and completes the certification and expansion of its Eco line.

Lariotex's position is consolidated in the market segment in terms of turnover and commitment. The focus on sustainability also involves places, people and work methods, as part of a vision that is inclusive and complies with work ethics. Lariotex's own strategies take their lead from the Green Deal and EU Strategy for Sustainable Textiles programme documents.
